Indians urged to control emotions
MUMBAI, Feb 26: India’s cricket chiefs have told players to keep their cool during the tri-series finals against Australia to prevent more disputes between the two teams.
“We do not want any more arguments on the ground,” India’s cricket board (BCCI) secretary Niranjan Shah said on Tuesday.
“If you (a player) have a problem, go to the umpires, match referee of tell the team manager.”
The latest controversy involved fast bowler Ishant Sharma and Australia all-rounder Andrew Symonds during Sunday’s tri-series match.
Sharma was fined 15 per cent of his match fee for celebrating Symonds dismissal by pointing the batsman to the dressing room during a heated exchange.
