Shame for Pakistan, Afridi caught biting ball.

What on Earth is this, Afridi trying to cheat again? Last time it was in 2005, roughing up the pitch, this time biting the ball to deform it. Well he pleaded guilty, and got himself a two game ban. Perhaps it is just for the TV ratings and it was all planned. But, not very good for a game where both teams should respect the rules. Bad cricket, eh what? Bad actions by any team member on any team should be a bit tougher, it was almost worth the try to see if he could get away with it, a measly two game ban, bah. I'd love to know if it was just his decision or this sort of carry on is now part of cricket to boost TV ratings. You know, more people will tune into cricket to see what funny games they get up to next.
