Southampton: The BCCI and the ICC seem headed for a showdown after Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was fined 50 percent of his match fee on Friday for the altercation with England pacer James Anderson, a sentence which a livid Indian board intends to challenge.
Jadeja was docked 50 per cent of his match fee by match referee David Boon for the on-field incident with Anderson but the player was not found guilty for the original Level 2 offence charged by the England team management.
A miffed BCCI made it clear that it was not satisfied with the verdict and said it reserved its right to appeal against the sentence.
The BCCI said it was fully behind Jadeja after he was found guilty of ‘conduct contrary to the spirit of the game’.
