England wrapped up the five-match contest with a colossal innings and 244-run victory, completed inside three days, at The Oval yesterday.
Spearhead seamer Anderson was named England's man-of-the-series after taking 25 wickets at an average of 20.60 as he made inroads into an ever-more fallible India top order.
Anderson's sparkling form prompted a succession of increasingly low totals that culminated with the tourists' humiliating 94 all out in their second innings at The Oval.
But had India had their way, Anderson would not have been playing at all by that stage.
The charges were dismissed by ICC code of conduct commissioner Gordon Lewis, who also rescinded the 50 percent match fee fine imposed on Jadeja by match referee David Boon, the former Australia batsman.
However, what did emerge from the hearing was Anderson's fondness for some pretty crude 'sledging' or verbal abuse of opposition batsmen out in the middle.
And in the light of that, Anderson said he had tried to let his bowling, above all else, do the talking for him.
"I think I tried to be as aggressive. Whether I tried to say any less, I don't know. But I think the Jadeja incident made me more determined to perform on the field.
"At Southampton, when the stuff was going on around before and after the game (the Lancashire paceman had his hearing the day after England's series-levelling victory), we were so focused on winning that game, and since then we've not let India back into the series.
