While rapists, gang bangers, gun slingers, and hooligans roam the streets of Manchester, London, New York, Los Angelas, Paris, Tokyo, Athens, Sydney, Bangkok, Singapore, Jakarta, Dhaka, Riyad, Cairo, Johannesburg, etc etc etc… we have three cricket players who are in jail for a NO BALL bowled during a TEST MATCH which didn’t even remotely affect the outcome of the game?? Are you joking me? This is a disgrace…

They are not in jail for bowling NO BALLS. They are in jail for taking money for it and ensuring winnings for the betting syndicates.

Yes, such actions do not ‘affect the outcome of the game’ but they do effect outcomes of a lot of bets made during this match around the world, consequently cheating thousands of people.
