Watch: Mohammad Amir's Controversial Gesture In PSL Leaves Fans Fuming

Pakistani pacer Mohammad Amir has time and again made headlines for his action in the Pakistan Super League. The left-arm seamer earned plenty of flak for his on-field antics while bowling to Pakistan national team skipper Babar Azam.

Watch: When Axar Patel told Ravindra Jadeja 'Meri toh bowling hi nahi aa rahi', this is how Jaddu replied

Jadeja's return to the Indian Test team from injury keeps getting better, as showcased by the latest highlight of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series, where the all-rounder took 7 for 42 to deflate Australia and lay the foundation of India's six-wicket win in the second Test in Delhi. But what Jadeja's comeback has also done is that it has limited fellow left-armer Axar Patel's visits to the bowling crease. Jadeja has taken the series by a storm, with both bat and ball. Starting with a five-wicket haul and a half-century in Nagpur, Jadeja continues to rattle the Australians, especially with his spin. In his absence, Axar was on a roll with the ball. With that as the premise, Axar jokingly remarked during his conversation with Jadeja on a BCCI video: "Sir, meri toh bolwing aa nahi rahi (I am not getting a chance to bowl)."

The Indian team finished second in Group 2 to book a spot in the semis, with current group leaders England as the other team to reach the last-four stage. England have a game against Pakistan left to play, but are likely to remain at the top of the group irrespective of the result in that game because of their superior net run-rate. Australia have already won Group 1, so are almost certain to play India as runners-up in Group One in the semi-finals.
