A Ball a Day keeps Cricket Away

Shahid Afridi Tampering Ball

Just like Doctors say “An apple a day keeps doctor away”, cricket always says the same thing. In the last ODI between Pakistan and Australia, Afridi was caught tampering the ball with his mouth. According to laws of cricket, tampering ball is a serial offence. Afridi is banned for 2 T20 matches.

The most embarrassing thing was to see a captain of a team violating the laws of cricket. Does he deserve to be a captain?

During the press conference, Afridi admitted his fault and said : “I shouldn’t have done it. It just happened. I was trying to help my bowlers and win a match, one match”.

I am sure people must be chanting “Ban Ban Afridi”!
