A ONE test match ban for Steve Smith. The ICC sending out a strong message as always....
As for Cameron Bancroft. First time you say??

And no ban whatsoever for Bancroft. Just some "demerit points".
Sounds like something you'd get when you speak out of turn to your P3 teacher. Shambles.

It's a low grade offence though under current rules.
He'd have to chin an opponent or umpire to get a heavier punishment.
This rule will change though I'd imagine now like.
Slap on the wrist.
Embarrassing behaviour as per usual from the ICC.

We all know if it oz, England or India, there won't be much of a punishment
Oh yeah. It's a joke really.
Should be used as a chance to set a precedent going forward - no matter who you are, ball tamper and you're knackered.

Welcome back Wayne
Aussies cheating eh? Wow.
The Kricketing Koppites..........
Token bans and such all around...then off to the IPL for big bucks
The slaps on the wrists from the ICC will not be the end of it though. The bigger issue is the reaction from the Australian public and media when they get back home after the series. Still can't see Smith surving as captain.

Pathetic, utterly pathetic. What even is that? They've finished bowling so they didn't have any decisions left to make anyway, battling line up would just be the same.
Hope the crowd is giving them he'll because that decision by the ICC is an utter disgrace. Why do all sports seem to accept cheating and not want to punish it? It's all to do with money isn't it? Never hear of any severe punishments these days.
Australia collapsing England style here, 57-0 to 59-4. Warner and Smith booed as they walked off/came on to the pitch. It's all fun and games.

Ive been watching the snooker, Ronnie in full flow is something I enjoy.
Murphy just called a foul on himself, that no one else saw too and lost the frame. Now that's sportsmanship.
Flicked the cricket on now for a few overs..
