Jadeja was seen in a video receiving something from pace bowler Mohammed Siraj and rubbing it on his left index finger. The Indian all-rounder's act had the Australian media and a former player "interested", but the ICC said the cream was applied to the finger purely for medical purposes and it did not change the condition of the ball.
