This has been trending for quite a few days now and i felt it is worth a share here.
Much has been spoken about the ugly spat between James Anderson and Ravindra Jadeja during the 1st Test match at Trent Bridge. Apparently, Jadeja’s bat had a secret mic, that recorded the entire conversation. Wondering
how the bat had a mic? Well, it belongs to Sir Ravindra Jadeja. Not just a mic, it may also have weapons for all we know.

Here’s what really happened:
Anderson: SIR.
Jadeja: Yes, cry baby.
Anderson: What did you have for breakfast?
Jadeja: Uthappa.
Anderson: What? Is he here too?
Jadeja: Damn! Anyway, why are you wasting
time? Go bowl.
Anderson: Why do they call you, sir?
Jadeja: Because of my supernatural powers.
Anderson: Why? What do you have that I
don’t have?
Jadeja: Mustache, to begin with.
Anderson: That even I can grow. I have talent,
you can’t grow talent.
Jadeja: But I can take a loan from Rohit
Sharma.
Anderson: Can't argue much there.
Jadeja: This Test match is boring. Want to play
Truth or Dare?
Anderson: Why not!
Jadeja: Ok, I’ll ask a question, if you answer
wrong, you have to choose whether you want
Truth or Dare.
Anderson: Ok, go ahead.
Jadeja: There is 1 ball left and 14 runs to win.
No no-ball or wide is bowled. How can the
team win?
Anderson: Umm. Some sort of Penalty or D/L
method?
Jadeja: Haha, idiot. No. A dot-ball.
Anderson: Err…
Jadeja: I didn't say which team wins in the
question, did I? See, you English are so dumb.
Anderson. Damn. Ok fine. I choose dare.
Jadeja: Retire from Test cricket.
Anderson: F**K YOU!
Jadeja: What?
Anderson: F**KKKKK YOUUUUU!
Jadeja: Not able to hear you.
Anderson: *pushes* F**K OFF!
Jadeja: Ok, enough evidence to get you
banned

Had a laugh..?? That's sir for you..

Jadeja was found not guilty of a level-two breach but instead charged with conduct contrary to spirit of game and fined 50% of his match fee.

The Indian board issued a statement saying: A BCCI statement read: “The BCCI wishes to make it clear that it is not satisfied with the verdict. The BCCI reserves its right to appeal against the sentence. The BCCI believes that Mr Ravindra Jadeja was not at fault, and supports him fully.”

Jimmy's hearing is scheduled for August 1.
