Last time an Indian player got banned by the ICC?

[Savak]

Can't remember the last time any Indian player got seriously fined or banned by the ICC. Kohlis, Pants, Rahuls behaviour was totally unacceptable, out of border and absolutely blatant where they spoke directly to the broadcasters on the cameras.

I don't care about any BCCI and Indian fan threats to boycott the ICC and Cricket South Africa, there has to be a ruthless social media campaign for ICC tough action against these players.

I can't remember the last time the ICC ever took any serious action against an Indian player since the 2007 Harbhajan Singh episode

 

[Rana]

I think the senior cricketers who manage the BCCI (Dravid and Ganguly) would acknowledge this kind of behaviour is Unbefitting from cricketers. They should ban or fine these players internally even before the ICC gets a hold of them

 

[Varun]

Why would an Indian player get banned by the BCCICC?

Anyway - to answer your question, it's probably Pragyan Ojha who got called for chucking some years ago.

 

[Artaxerxes]

ICC has no guts to stand up to BCCI.It has become a joke.

 

[Cricfan4eva]

I would be surprised if Kohli, KL, Pant, Ashwin and Mayank don't get demerit points. Don't think it's going to be an outright ban, but yeah it did show dissent openly to DRS and the host broadcaster, so it will have some repercussions.

 

[Savak]

Screw the ICC, there has to be ruthless public and social media pressure for some strong action by the BCCI and the ICC. You have to draw the line at some point over this nonsense

 

[Mobashir]

If they are not banned or punished it will set a bad precedent.
At least Kohli should be banned.

This may be the beginning of an effort to have an ICC appointed neutral observer in the production and broadcasting section. A bully broadcaster has been openly called out.



Which public? And why will a billion people be cowered down by so called your public?

BCCI will do nothing. ICC may give a slap on the wrist, thats all.

And your social media public wont pay the ICC bills. Indian public will. Thats the harsh truth.

 

[Savak]

Apparently the ICC match referee has only unofficially privately warned the players and is leaving it at that.

All the players involved need to be heavily fined and banned for bringing the game into disrepute. The BCCI need to take action themselves and if not a rruhtless public campaign needs to be launched on all forums for action to be taken

This should set a precedent.
In future players can scream in to microphones and make allegations of cheating by the TV company or whatever and just get a unofficial warning for it.

 

[MenInG]

Indian skipper Virat Kohli and the team management have been informally warned following the outburst on the stump mic during the 3rd day's play of the Cape Town Test match. The day was marred by a controversy when the Indian players vented out their frustration after DRS saved the day for Dean Elgar.

The broadcaster isn't protected by ICC laws. ICC officials are.

Thats the difference.

So what you are saying is that the ICC / ICC Match Ref has no say on players behaviour on the field of play?
That they don't care how a kid watching such things on TV will react to something like this?

Silly question really because you will defend India and its players at all cost

 

[Zaz]

Any poor behaviour on the field is governed by the ICC no matter who ita directed towards, umpires, fans or the broadcasters

There should be bans

Otherwise the ICC are a complete joke of a governing body

 

[Extra_Cover]

I will be very surprised if no demerit points come from ICC. At the very least ICC should have some penalty points applied on the WTC ranking points for such sort of behaviour on the pitch.

Lets see what happens and I can already tell ICC are quietly wanting this matter to die down peacefully so they do not have to take any action here.

Why should there be? You called thr ajmal decision conspiracy and now your the down divulginf in conspiracy theories.

Super sport led to the series defeat of india..

 

[ElRaja]

of course no one can touch the indian team, icc hangs off their coat tails to earn a buck. makes kohlis antics all the more distasteful, its basically like the rich kid who bullies others in school knowing the principle wants to stay good with their dad so wont have to face any repercussions.

 

[James]

Formal punishments should be handed out but one feels that they will not be.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

3 match ban for Kohli & Ashwin should be the minimal punishment.

Are there any laws that say that players cannot question the neutrality of the broadcaster?

If not then there is nothing anyone can do.

1. I have already said India must accept the decision.

Doesn't mean they can't call out a bully broadcaster and its bias.

 

[James]

There are laws against generally poor conduct, which was certainly exhibited.

 

[IMMY69]

Also questioning the umpire's decision which technically it was.

Yes
Read up on it

 

[Amjid Javed]

If that was pakistan and babar azam behaving like then babar would have got a 1 year ban and pakistan would have had all its WTC points taken off them.

 

[IMMY69]

1. I have already said India must accept the decision.

You call it out at the end of the match in a calm fashion.
You don't go around making silly comments on the stump mic for all to hear and lose your head.
If you behave like a headless chicken you more often not lose the game as India eventually did.

Keep your nationalism aside for just one moment and try to think objectively.
Here was a wicket that was doing all sorts and your captain basically lost the plot which inevitably permeates to the entire team. Surely even you can see that?

A successful professional sportsman knows when to show aggression and when to keep their emotions in check. Kohli and a few of his players lost the plot entirely.

Should they penalised / punished? Yes of course they should. This behaviour is just unacceptable

 

[Saj]

If that was pakistan and babar azam behaving like then babar would have got a 1 year ban and pakistan would have had all its WTC points taken off them.

Probably more than that.

Several players banned, whole team fined and more.

 

[Major]

1. I have already said India must accept the decision.

Pakistan fans did the same thing, yet you said Pakistani fans were being conspiracy theorist. Would you like to apologies than?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Probably more than that.

Several players banned, whole team fined and more.

Probably get test status revoked aswell.

 

[the Great Khan]

Disgraceful behaviour. The whinging was just oscar winning. He should be fined and the rest of them. But at the same time it also shows how entitled they feel while at the same time portraying themselves as victims.

Disgraceful.

 

[Savak]

So no one can give us the name of any Indian player who has been fined and banned heavily by the ICC for mis-conduct in the last 10-15 years?

 

[U$ofA]

I see a lot of posts that say that the players should be banned, fined, they deserve ban etc. But no one mentions who should do the banning, fining. Very few posters have mentioned the ICC. No one wants to touch that subject. Not sure why that is.

 

[Gilly]

So no one can give us the name of any Indian player who has been fined and banned heavily by the ICC for mis-conduct in the last 10-15 years?

Kohli x 3
Jadeja x 2
Sharma
Amed
Saini

Thats only in the last 4-5 years.

 

[MenInG]

In an exclusive interview in the Wisden Cricket Monthly, in 2018, Kohli had revealed that he pleaded with the match referee to not ban him following the incident. At first, Kohli revealed that he acted as if nothing happened.

"The one thing I remember most is when I’d had enough of the Australian crowd at Sydney [in 2012] and I just decided to flick a [middle] finger at them. ‘I’m so cool’," he told Wisden Cricket Monthly.

"The match referee [Ranjan Madugalle] called me to his room the next day and I’m like, ‘What’s wrong?’. He said, ‘What happened at the boundary yesterday?’. I said, ‘Nothing, it was a bit of banter’. Then he threw the newspaper in front of me and there was this big image of me flicking on the front page and I said, ‘I’m so sorry, please don’t ban me!’. I got away with that one. He was a nice guy, he understood I was young and these things happen."

Arrogance and stupidity are separated by a very thin line and reflected in the statement above!

 

[MenInG]

We will need to wait a while:

==

The ICC match referee Andy Pycroft is learnt to have cautioned the Indian players for their on-field behavior and have been informed that such incidents should be avoided, failing which it will attract penalties. However, it has been confirmed that there was no reprimand or charges against the team, a Cricbuzz report said, according to IANS.

Although the Indian behaviour was uncalled for, it is learned that the Indian players escaped sanctions because their anger was directed against the technology, and not against any official, and the ICC code does not have a clause for the criticism of the broadcaster or technology

[Desi Don]

Ishant Sharma was banned for one test match in 2015

 

[shah9425]

So happy they lost series after being 1-0 up

 

[Saj]

Ishant Sharma was banned for one test match in 2015

India's Ishant Sharma has been banned for one Test following an altercation with three Sri Lanka players during his side's series-sealing victory in Colombo.

The seamer, 26, was punished for giving a send-off to opener Upul Tharanga - his third offence in the three-match Test series which India won 2-1.

Sri Lanka's Dinesh Chandimal has also been banned after barging Ishant.

His team-mates Lahiru Thirimanne and Dhammika Prasad received fines.

They lost 50% of their match fees for their conduct during the clash with Ishant.
