So FAF gets the minimum punishment and philander escapes.
Certain teams seem to follow a different set of rules by the match ref's

[Buzz]

I agree, it was very much deliberate.
he should have had a 100% match fee fine and a 1 match ban.

boon the match referee is a disgrace.

if it had been on of the pak batsmen it would have been a totally different punishment.

shocking.

[Blank Bats]

Double standards really.

[WalkingWicket37]

How has Faf got away without a ban?!?!

Big call Buzz considering England have been caught ball tampering and been let off Scott free

[Krs]

What a joke!

How can the umpire say it was not a deliberate attempt?

I agree with Buzz, if it was a Pakistani we would still be hearing about this. However South Africa ball tampering will just be brushed away!

Absolute joke

Anderson, Broad, spikes ring any bells

Don't rise to the baseless pommel-baiting Buzz. I think there's something called the Ashes coming up!

Whatever next - moaning about our 'pie-chucker' attack?

just saying I will be keeping an eye on those ball tampering Englishmen... Notice the South Africans in the team don't stoop to those levels

When did the Aussies become so puritanical?

How dare you

I think my boys should have been dealt with a little more harshly. But as already pointed out others have bent the rules in one way or another in the past and not to much has come of it.

Maybe I new 3 tear punishment system should be introduced.  Standing on a ball or rubbing it on a zip could constitute a two match ban and maybe not walking when you edge the ball to 1st slip a single match ban.

That means Broad would never play for England again

It's all getting a little bit similar to football. Where anything goes as long as 'you' win.  Rather than winning by actually playing better than the opposition.
