Jimmy said during the ashes he had no problems with the Aussie sledging as he gave as good as he got. Absolutely nothing wrong with his fiery attitude. It's what makes him a world class player and adds to the drama of a test match.

I have no doubt if this was Sam Robson pushing Jadeja nobody would have batted an eyelid.

I thought it was pretty pathetic for India to launch this investigation. If and Indian player pushed an England player I genuinely couldn't care less. Even footballers can handle a push

As long as the sledging doesn't become vicious and punches aren't thrown get on with it lads

To be fair though, I think both boards did try to tell the Indian players to shake hands and forget it, but it was due to the insistence of Dhoni and fletcher that they went ahead with it and called in the lawyers..... Embarrassing.

Yes, roots face was a mess

Was a little scuffle, England just tried to get Warner banned. Disgusting

England did nothing... The Australian board banned Warner no resort to the ICC... But don't let the truth get in the way of an argument.

If the judge finds not guilty there's nothing to apologise for- on either side.

Anderson should apologise by showing his middle fingers to whoever is demanding an apology...

No did nothing

Fair enough.

The Indians have been getting on the wick of every upstanding cricketing nation for some years now.

They will eventually find themselves alienated when they push both South Africa and Australia too far. Thankfully, for India, the English are a temperate lot; though this will not be forgotten - when the time comes, we will side with the other nations against them.

The great Indian fans of the Gavaskar era and before (who filled grounds whatever the weather) will be devastated by what has become of their country's antics.

This generation of greed-riddled, self-serving fans will never understand. Never.

Lefty you fool, Warner did assault Root..... nothing happened at Trent Bridge

Indian players and captain in particular are just a big bunch of wimps, absolutely hilarious the 'case' was decided within a few minutes, several sources close to the proceedings describe them as 'baseless, needless and somewhat farcical'.

India and Dhoni have been humiliated, their pathetic attempts to gain an advantage in the series by removing one of England's best players has just resulted in serial embarrassment for their players and cricket board. Sledging happens in cricket, get used to it rather than crying to mummy.

Jimmy will be fired up and ready to tear them to pieces at Old Trafford. Come on boys let's smash em.

Laugh At India, what a bunch of clowns

Who remembers when they ran out Bell when he was walking off for tea? Only

At least back then they had a few very respectable team members who understood the spirit of the game like Dravid and Tendulkar who insisted he be reinstated can't say that about them now.

England had fresh anderson in tb and at lords(on the most greenest pitch). And he did jack. He was not even the best bowler on both sides until last match. Dont know why England think ow. Just for all the eng fans and anderson I hope he is destroyed by India in the next match

Eng should not even talk about spirit of cricket. Just dont. Lool you talk about these scuffles are fine and then in the same line talk about spirit of cricket. What a load of thrash

Dont worry, there will be another collapse like a deck of cards batting display from India

Regardless, at least we wouldn't scout the world as our home grown players aren't good enough

Lefty- didnt take you long to bring that up did it..... Yawnnnnn

Can English fans please explain what they understand by spirit of cricket and what they deem to be against it? Does not walking count? Does sledging count? Does pushing count? Does taking your appeal back count? Or is it that spirit of cricket doesnt apply to the eng team?

Anti India comments, yyaaawwwnn

Where was the spirit of cricket at Southampton on Friday.... or should I ask the judge?

Spirit of cricket means it only applies when it happens to England.

Little scuffle, ECB ask Warner to be banned
Then argue it's nothing when Anderson pushes Jadeja.

Bunch of hypocrites.

The real stain on cricket

Which England player grabbed a Pakistan player by the neck???

Oh, that Ok

Then they complain about Warner and roots minor scuffle.

Pillocks

P. S. Transfer window closes this month. Get those scouts out

It was anderson that pushed Jadeja not the other way round. Im convinced that you dont understand what spirit of cricket is.

India have over a billion people to choose from and are still only capable of winning the odd test abroad every few years
