During the drinks break in the first session of the Day 4, Indian paceman Ishant Sharma was seen having a heated argument with 12th man in the match Ravindra Jadeja.
Channel 7 showed the verbal fight between the two right in the middle of the ground. At one stage, the two senior Indian cricketers were arguing nose to nose.
Ricky Ponting, who was on commentary at the time of incident, could be heard saying, "Who knows what they're talking about, it does seem very animated, there's lots of finger pointing. Things have obviously got a little bit heated between these two".
