Bumrah's bouncer filled over to Anderson on day 3 sparked heated exchanges between 2 sides.
Not only did India showed great character in the match, but the players themselves were involved in some heated exchanges as well. The focal point of this was the confrontation between Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, and James Anderson, Joe Root. This was prompted after a 10-ball over from Jasprit Bumrah in which he barraged James Anderson with bouncers.
Anderson, Kohli, and Bumrah were seen involved in some heated exchanges on the field after the third day’s play ended. However, reports from the Telegraph have suggested that England and India's players were involved in a heated confrontation in the Lord's Long Room after the third day's action in the second Test.
England skipper Joe Root and India skipper Virat Kohli are believed to have exchanged words on their way to the dressing rooms as things looked like they could go out of hand.
After that, tempers flared and both teams engaged in verbals throughout the game.
"I was angry at the end. The emotion got the better of me and I felt I had to say something. I felt bad for doing that because it drew attention away from Rooty celebrating an amazing inning as he came off the field. I apologise to him afterwards for that but the emotion got the better of me. It happens sometimes," wrote Anderson in his column for the Telegraph.
Both sides will now lock horns in the third Test, beginning Wednesday (Aug 25) at Headingley, Leeds.
