Eh-eh bhai Nehru, for a second I thought this is the Sports section.

However, it is a sound decision by the respective authorities.

DG, when the PM of Australia gets involved it deserve Political.

You are 1,000% correct, Nehru.

The Aussies have disgraced Cricket. A year is too light of a sentence, a ban would have sent a stronger message. This is just a wink, wink to their boys and an attempt to divert attention away for the bigger issue of Aussie cheating at the game of cricket.

Yuji, not true. This is the harshest punishment for such an offense. Max fixing had more serious punishment.

Ok Bhai, point taken.

Match Fixing):

YUji, go to Cricinfo.com and watch Smith tears and GENUINE regret and you will certainly have sympathy for the Guys. This is indeed a SAD time not only for them but for Cricket as a whole. I know this will be a lesson for everyone who are involved in Sports. I am so sorry for what happened to such talented Guys and hope Australia can reduce their punishment. They will live with this for the rest of their lives. Sad, really sad.
