Symonds in trouble

Brisbane: Andrew Symonds could face serious punishment from the International Cricket Council for man-handling a streaker during the second final of the CB series here on Tuesday. Symonds was at the non-striker’s end when the incident took place.

When the streaker ran on to the pitch, trying to evade the police by approaching in the direction of Symonds, the all-rounder leaned on to him in a rugby-style shoulder charge and grounded him.

If the umpires decide to report the incident to the ICC and Symonds is found guilty of breaching section 4.2 of the code of conduct, he could be suspended for five Tests or 10 ODIs up to a life ban.

Section 4.2 relates to a physical assault of a rival player, an official or a spectator. — Agencies
