They will get nothing more than a small slap on the wrist.. nothing meaningful
They did it in India remember and kohli called it out.. nothing happened..
I don't know an incident in India myself or of any press articles.Personally I don't recall ever seeing anything quite so blatant and I've been watching a long time.
I disagree with your outcome,I think they will get the book thrown at them.
And I would think the same if it was England.
What does Faf de plesis think of this?? He got charged for having a sweet in his mouth correct? and Kholi a similar charge.
Saliva from a sweet is allowed(correct me if I'm wrong please) taking a DIY kit to the ball and sandpapering it is not.
The Asian countries that control cricket will want the Aussies nailed.
I wold expect root and the coach to resign and get banned if this was England, Smith and Lehmann are cheats, blatant cheats.
