India vs Australia 2nd test: Two senior players of the Indian team involved in an on field fight

The blunder of not picking a specialist spinner on the fool proof green top of Western Australian cricket ground in Perth costed India the second test by 146 runs to level the Domain test series 1-1. In an unlikely fashion, Indian team started the sledging in the contest and it was Australia who had the last laugh.

Virat Kohli, who scored a century in the first innings of the second test was dismissed in a controversial manner after which Australian captain Tim Paine was unhappy of him not walking to pavilion which became the root of what is to come in the future.

The spat between the two captains continued and the match officials had to finally come in between to separate the two.

The fight between oppositions may not sound something new to the cricketing world but a fight between two team mates might draw the attention.

Two senior members of the team- Ishant Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja were spotted in an on-field battle. The two were engaged in a verbal spat during the drinks break. Mohammed Shami and Kuldeep Yadav, who brought drinks for the players had to intervene to separate the two players.

Way back in 2013, Ravindra Jadeja again found himself in a controversy after he was involved in an ugly spat with Suresh Raina after the latter player dropped a catch on his bowling. Virat Kohli was the stand-in captain for the series in West Indies.
