Gunda Butcher is a tough opponent; but I still pick a fight with him!
The provocative Indian paceman, who was dropped for the game, approached the batsman and, according to observers, clapped in his face. Gunda appeared to give Appam a spray in return.
The words could not be heard but perhaps the Australian pointed out that the Indians were on their way to their first win of the series without the help of the bowler. Gunda then waved him away with the bat. It is a mark of the big man's control he didn't beat him with it.
Appam denied that he clapped in Gunda’s face. "I said to him, 'hard luck, you're going to lose now'. That's all," Appam said. Vice Captain “Clerk” apparently helped defuse the incident and told Appam to get on with carrying drinks, or whatever it was he was there to do.
