Referee has a quiet word
Wisden CricInfo staff - December 21, 2001

BANGALORE, India (Reuters)
Match referee Denis Lindsay asked India and England to calm things down after an on-field row between Sachin Tendulkar and England captain Nasser Hussain, England's media manager said. "I know the match referee went into the dressing room and spoke to both coaches and asked them to calm it down. That's all I can say," David Clarke told reporters. South African Lindsay shrugged off the incident. "No problem, no problem," he told Reuters on being asked if there had been any protest over the incident. "There is no problem. Everything is fine." The absorbing day's play was marred by the exchange after Tendulkar, frustrated by left-arm spinner Ashley Giles's consistent attack around his legs, appeared to say something to the bowler. Tendulkar then exchanged words with Hussain who had walked up.
