Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee

[DesiChap]

India paceman Shanthakumaran Sreesanth was later fined a total of 30% of his match fee for two level one breaches of the ICC code. His over-zealous celebration of the wicket of Hashim Amla was deemed to have been against the spirit of the game. That cost him 20% and an additional 10% will be extracted from his pay packet for two instances of wearing commercial logos on his clothing. Match referee Roshan Mahanama said: "We do not want robots out there but we do want players to control their emotions once they get onto the field because they have to realise they are role models for all those watching."

Re: Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee Rules Differ for Each Player ? Never Knew this :chin: At first I thought He was fined for that Over-Joy after hitting Nel for a Six But how come Nel survived without a Fine...this ain't Fair :mad:

Re: Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee I agree with Mahanama's observation, but why is it one sided? Why does Nel get away scot free every time? It's disgusting how the color of the skin decides the penalties. Even Asian match referees try to be overly righteous and punish their own lot.

Re: Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee Fair enough call. The Nel incident was fine but he did go overboard at the Amla dismissal. Hope he plays it smarter in the future. The last thing our fragile bowling needs is people sitting out on bans.

Re: Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee Has the ump ever warned Nel? I am pretty sure he has mocked at a departing player on more occasion than one.

Well Nel puts his hand on the shoulder of the umpire so somehow everyting he does becomes OK!!!!! :wall: Such one sided assh :mad: leness! So Nel sledging Sri with the heart thing is less bad?

Re: Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee Guys, they didn't mention the Nel incident. They said Sreesanth was fined for Amla's wicket. Honestly I didn't see it and can't really judge if that was right. I just hope Sreesanth controls his action a little bit at times otherwise he won't go home with enough in his pocket. Moreover he could probably use a little bit of that energy in his bowling. I like his attitude and the aggressive outlook but I don't want him to end up like Nel. It has to be controlled a little bit perhaps :chin:

Re: Sreesanth fined 30% Match fee for those of you watching the ashes, do you remember warne mocking flintoff after his dismissal in adelaide? that was worse, on a logarithmic scale, than sreesanth vs. amla. mahanama is a self-righteous, but at the same time, subversient character.
