Life ban would be popestrous 

 

i would say a 4 to 6 month ban is ideal . Aussies need to walk the talk and have high standard

 

of course if Pakistani did it pcb would build a new stadium ( if they could afford it ) and name it honour of their boyzz 

You are underestimating Pakistanis....the benchmark to get a stadium is a genocide of atleast 100,000 people eg, Gaddafi,Jinnah etc etc

Ban for life is too extreme. Life ban should be the punishment for match fixers. Make Smith and Warner step down from captaincy and VC and ban them for a few matches.

Very lenient.Issue is not just ball tampering but cheating culture of Aussies from a long time now.I don't know if CA was really naive or deliberately delusional of "Aussie play hard but fair".  We are talking of punishment to be given by CA for whom the gravity of incident is not just mere ball tampering but an organised effort where a team discusses how to cheat as a team strategy.

3 year for Smith. 2 for bancroft. Life ban for Lehman. 1year or 6 months each for other members of leadership group sounds reasonable. Neither harsh nor lenient.

any Ban over a couple of games would be crazy. Everyone does it these guys planned and were caught. Don’t forget some of our greats have been caught ball tampering. 

 

Oh by the way can someone please explain why a bowler after getting hit for a 4 rubs his hand on pitch and then starts shining the ball. Don’t give me drying hand bull crap.

You dry the hand on grass only , if it's in dirt then it's an alternative motive

Ban for a few months. Only because other teams have been doing it too .... And it is not as grave as match fixing .... Life bans should start with Pak first .... But Aus deserves to be put under the hammer for how it behaves on the field

 

Additionally, conditioning the ball w/o using external objects such as sand paper, bottle caps, sugar, etc., should be made legal 

 

Conditioning the ball in the proper way (without relying on external objects) is combination of both science and art!

He made a mistake. If he is a repeat offender than by all means.

[asterix]

As if Aussies didn’t knew they have been cheating in Cricket for generations... now in order to look righteous, they gonna hand over harsh treatment to Smith and company.

That Clarke who wants to be captain again, showing as if he’s never cheated in his career...

[cowboysfan]

no.ban him for a few months.the main thing is they need to investigate who was involved from top to bottom but i would hate to see Smith miss home tests against us and SA.

No firstly ....life ban  would be  too  harsh a punishment  for a great batsman who  did the cheating just for his fast bowlers  just because of him being the captain.

Secondly, legendary padosi  Kaptaans are there who   committed much more intense cheating day in day out  to be known as legends in their main discipline.And what not, Kaptaan  Khan had even  higher esteems to conquer as being "the GOAT all rounder +ATG Kaptaan".

When such chronic criminals are there with their records at least officially intact(their esteem no more the same in the minds of lakhs and lakhs of fair play believing game lovers though) , a great batsman like Smith doesn't deserve life ban at all.A 2 year ban will do.

Any ban imposed by Cricket Australia will have nothing to do with him being a great batsmen or any others who have cheated before and why should it?

[Cricketics]

Amazing how people think that Tampering the ball is the same as match fixing and that they should get same or similar consequences in terms of punishment.

 

Aussies used foreign object to tamper the ball. That doesn’t mean they took money or sold their country on the field.

 

Two different things.

 

Fine them and suspend them for few series or two and take the captaincy away from Smith.

 

Thats about it.

As much as I despise them for everything not just this, agree a lifetime ban would be harsh. Their real punishment of course will be no longer being able to pull the wool over people's eyes with the "hard but fair" guardians of "The Line" ****.

Ban them from few matches with exception Ind-Aus seriese. I want to see Kohli and company trolling them on the field. Please dont rob them from this opportunity. We can ban them from IPL if we like .

As an Aussie im quite surprised about these comments, I guess you guys are looking forward to hanging **** on them on the field. Where as most Aussies don't want to watch them play again mainly because we earnt accustom to our players being grubs, and lately Smith and Warner act like the sun shines out their asses. Its a shame but that's just not cricket.
