On February 11, the International Cricket Council (ICC) fined Ravindra Jadeja 25% of his match money for putting cream to his finger while he was bowling in the opening of a four-match Test series against Australia. On social media, the episode raised a lot of controversies. Following the ointment issue, Amul has now published a doodle that features none other than the Indian all-rounder.
The description for the doodle says, “#Amul Topical: Star Indian all- rounder fined for applying cream on the ball!”
Ungli sirf butter mein daalo, Jaddu. Really calming, Amul,” are the words written on the image.
Jadeja is shown in the doodle standing close to the Amul girl who is petting his finger.

The match referee came to the conclusion that the cream was administered for a single medical reason and that there was no attempt to use an artificial ingredient to change the ball’s condition (ball tampering).
But according to the ICC, Ravindra Jadeja received a fine and a demerit point because he put cream on his finger without asking the on-field umpires’ permission. Jadeja was accused of violating the ICC Code of Conduct at Level 1.
