re: Afridi banned for 2 T20s for ball tampering
In EVERY game people cheat!
Either its Olympics race by doping
Football match by doping or referee favoritism
Cricket by elastic blades in bat or by biting or tempering the ball or by tempering the pitch
or any game in the world.. People cheat and it happens in EVERY single game.
Now a days Almost all football games are being heavily invested with money from betting companies.
Many people do it deliberately and some got caught and punished and others got caught and still nothing happens.
I dont support what he did. BUT there are two sides of this thing.
One is bad and one is good.
The good one is:
Any person who try any such act to win the game, either he do it for himself or for his team or for his country (if he is playing at country level). Its only done to be Good.
Bad:
If the person got caught then he or she has to accept the punishment. Behind such punishment there lies a lot of diplomatic thoughts. Like which country, what language, what skin, how is the international reputation of that country and so on.
Although it "should" not be done in a game as it is indeed bad what Afridi did but you can never be sure of a fair game!
