Cricket ball for dinner

Shahid Afridi , a veteran of many a ODIs and tests for Pakistan was handed over a 2 match ban for ball tampering in the final ODI with Australia.

But, in my honest view, a two match ban is too lenient. Afridi was a repeat offender. A captain of an international side who has already been handed over a similar sentence in 2005 brings disrepute to his country and the sport and reasons out that he was frustrated at not winning even a single game in the series.
And why was only he been handed over the sentence ? What about the 2 bowlers who were seen on the visuals engaging in a chat with their captain at the scene of the crime ? They too were in knowledge of the "act" and should have been punished along with their captain for abetting ball tampering. The ICC should set an example for instilling faith in them by banning him for 2 years in any form of cricket. . International Cricket Club .Are you listening ?

People should learn to love animals...


They are so tasty...
