If Randiv gets punished, so should some of the English and Australian players

One feels that Suraj Randiv’s misdemeanour in the game against India deserved to be punished. Probably a fine of some sort, if not a ban for a game or so. However, the same should not be restricted to being against an Asian team only.

Because, from what one sees these days, the Australians and some of the Englishmen have continued to go scot-free despite being involved in some of the nastiest on-field dramas. Are we trying to say that swearing at the opposition, throwing the ball back at the batsman and shouldering them are ethical?

Come on, you got to be kidding me. Recently, Stuart Broad had thrown the ball back at Zulqarnain Haider and hit him on his hand. It has turned out that Haider hurt his hand due to that throw and will now miss the rest of the series. Broad was fined 50% of his match fee. That’s it!

What about those Aussies, who manage to shoulder and swear at the opposition. Is that under the spirit of the game? If not, even they should be banned or fined. Why have two different laws for the so-called Spirit of Cricket?
