You heard it hear first, Aussies are too big in the game to face any meaningful penalties so any sanctions given will seem too leanient. Smith will resign and just play as a batsman and so will Warner, coach will defend himself and most likely remain in his position (Bans and fines may be used against them however they will be minor). Smith's arrogance about the entire situation suggests he's untouchable and that nothing will come of it, maybe he's got the backing of the CA hence the swagger?

This story will be swept away quickly by ICC board, again because Aus are one of the key players and as we all know the ICC are corrupt money grabbers.

It's a sad state but I genuinely believe most will get away with it and in a year's time we will have forgotten about it.

I couldn’t agree more

He a cheat plain and simple (Yorkshire connections or not)

Watching does not mean you know!!

I'm not certain there is evidence to support such certainty!

Looks like I was right, one game ban is pathetic.

Yup! 3 demerit points only for Bancroft.

Pretty sure I called a lack of meaningful action at the time on this thread 🙈

Everyone will forget within a few days just like people are letting stokes off beating the crap out of someone and hales for kicking someone in the head (which is never acceptable).

Faf has been caught TWICE. The ICC regulations are not that strict when it comes to tampering.

I'm actually quite glad that they were not too hard on Bancroft - he was very much the poor stooge in this.  I wonder to what extent the ICC also recognised that if they made him unavailable for the fourth test they were in effect a) giving CA the opportunity to make him the sacrificial lamb and b) probably ending his test career in the process.

Atherton
Kohli
Faf
Atherton
Trescothic
Bancroft
Tendulkar

I’m sure there are others who just haven’t been caught or at least pulled up.

The game is at a point where it needs to decide if it’s time to clean up or give up and continue down the road it’s on. Sadly, I suspect nothing will change as a lot of the above are still playing or making big money so people simply don’t care about cheating.

They don’t care.. pros don’t care.. ICC obviously don’t care

Time to move on and just accept it’s happening in every innings

Unfortunately true...

I think 100% they have been using Warner to do this with his strapping on his hand and since the complaint from SA Australia had to try something new to get the same effect.

Aus have the stuffing knocked out of them.. collapsing

If any of them weren’t aware of what was happening then I suppose it would remove the fight from you
