May be he picked the wrong guy may be not but his message was conveyed. And later he vented his anger in spirited bowling performances. I am happy to see unity of the Indian team on and off the ground. This is 2nd incident of bad taste, first they insulted Lakshman for speaking in Hindi in a press conference and now created troubles for Zaheer.
After facing Zaheer on a bowler-friendly pitch on day-1, may be some English batsman started losing his balls thinking about facing Zaheer again with India taking a lead of 225-plus on day-3.
Actually it did more good to Zaheer than harm as he got 5 (out of 6) top-line English batsmen (except Pietersen who only got some verbal bashing from him).
Cheer up Zaks - you have been doing really well in this series - don't lose your cool.
is what these brits have... Is this the last resort that they resort to? Put jelly beans on the pitch to distract the batsman?! If someone from pak/ind team had put jelly beans on the pitch, i'm sure someone would come up with the issue of 'Pitch Tampering'... But its ok for England, its the Pom's idea of a practical joke.. well, they're about to lose on their own soil, on their own heads be it...
Zaheer replied by blasting half the England side back to their bedrooms, well done man!

Well the jelly beans showed good effect in the english 2nd innings. Kudos to Zaheer and to RP singh too, Who bowled excellent spells. Its time that we show our revenge via performance...
