The second Test between Indian National Cricket team and Australia at Perth witnessed some heated exchanges with the verbal spat between Virat Kohli and Tim Paine, the notable 0f all. However, during the last day’s play Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja also had a war of words with his teammate Ishant Sharma.

Meanwhile, India failed to replicate their effort from Adelaide as they lost the Test by 146 runs. Australia came from 1-0 down to level the series at Perth following some inspiring performances. Nathan Lyon was excellent with the ball returning with eight wickets to bag the man of the match award. The batsmen also improved significantly as Usman Khawaja played a gritty knock of 72 runs to guide his side post a massive target of 287 runs.

While the stump microphone recordings of the exchanges between Tim Paine and Virat Kohli was out there for everyone to hear but the recording of the argument between Ishant Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja, which stopped after Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Shami intervened, remained under cover.

However, ESPNcricinfo got access to the stump mic recording and according to reports, this is the transcript of the conversation between Ishant and Jadeja:

Ishant: “Don’t wave at me, okay? If you need something…”

Ishant: “He is telling me from behind to go fast.”

Jadeja: “Even I don’t like it. I am also a part of the team. Why are you talking so much?”

Ishant: “Don’t wave at me. Don’t show me your anger. I will take your anger and shove it up your arse.”

Jadeja: “You keep yours to yourself.”

Ishant: “I will shove your anger up your arse.”

Jadeja: “Don’t give me this b******t.”

Ishant: “You also don’t talk to me.”
