Ravindra Jadeja's Hilarious Moment with Umpire During Test Match

Jadeja's Playful Interaction with Umpire
In a light-hearted moment on the field, Indian allrounder Ravindra Jadeja, despite not taking any wickets, was seen expressing his excitement. He humorously sledged the umpire, which amused fans. The Indian team had been advocating for a change of the Duke ball due to its deterioration. Both Shubman Gill, the captain, and vice-captain Rishabh Pant approached the umpires regarding the ball. After a thorough inspection, the umpires consented to replace the ball during the 27th over of England's second innings. Jadeja was spotted giving a fist pump towards umpire Chris Gaffaney.
ICC's Disciplinary Action Against Pant
Rishabh Pant, the vice-captain and wicketkeeper, faced a fine for breaching Article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct, which pertains to showing dissent towards an umpire's decision during an international match. This incident occurred in the 61st over of England's innings when Pant was seen conversing with the umpires about the ball's condition. After the umpires declined to change the ball following their assessment, Pant expressed his frustration by tossing the ball to the ground in front of them.
