Clash: Jadeja (left) and England's James Anderson (right) were involved in an incident at Trent Bridge

Incident: Jadeja (right) was found guilty of 'conduct contrary to the spirit of the game' by the ICC at his hearing

Verbals: Anderson and Jadeja have a frank exchange of views out in the middle on day two of the first Test


'I would not like to take any other individual name in this,' he said. 'But we started walking and there is an individual who used foul language against Jadeja - and I had to step in the middle and by the time we reached the ropes,Ray Ban 4149, I thought the thing had defused.
'By the time we were through the members' area, I was ahead of Jadeja. He was a couple of yards behind me and again something happened.'
Dhoni insists Jadeja was, throughout, an innocent party.
'Something was said to him, and he just turned to the individual - and after that he was pushed, and he barely gained his balance,' said Dhoni.
'He turned to see what is happening. On the basis of that, he is fined. The thing that was told is that it was against the spirit of the game - but what we have to say is that we can't ignore whatever has happened.

'If somebody is saying something to you from behind and you turn and you look, that is not aggressive.'
India will resume the series on Sunday, with a 1-0 lead, harbouring evident grievances over the way Jadeja has been treated.
Dhoni added: 'The bat was under his armpit throughout, right from lunch (being called on the pitch) until he entered the dressing room and not one word was spoken by him.
'I am not lying when it comes to the factual matter. I don't think there was a bit of aggression (from Jadeja) and that is the reason I am very hurt by the wording that has been given. I think it is very important.'
India are frustrated at their inability to appeal against the decision made by match referee David Boon.
