Re: inzamam faceing one-match ban…

Generally umpires don’t raise their fingers when batsmen get clean bowled. Ganguly was so shocked, that he thought there was a failed stumping attempt, as his feet was inside the crease and couldn’t figure out why Pak fielders are jumping all over. He looked confused towards the umpire, and once the umpire raised the finger, he walked away disgusted with himself. He was not upset at the umpire’s decision or anything, so I don’t think he should be warned/fined for that. He just didn’t knew what was going on.

I think it was lucky that Afridi is not reprimanded for his sledging. I don’t mind some sledging here and there, as long as its kinda discreet and not over the top, plus it keeps the game exciting. But to sledge Dravid was in very bad taste. Dravid is a gentlman, and one of the best and most sobre batsmen in the world. Afridi had no business sledging him after every ball.
