at least they got something right.

No I think it's harsh compared to other cricketer nation's performance in the same vein.

I too think they were harsh. However, they did the crime and it seems they will have to do the time.

i feel we only have a limited number of oportunities to be the best at something world wide, cricket was prolly our best shot at being number one at something.

so showing every other nation we hold the rules above everything and how we believe the game should be played was important.

yes i know every other nation does some cheating, but at least we showed when we got caught we made an example of the cheats. its a pity all nations done see cheating the same way.

i would really hope every cricket playing nation would take the same hard line attitude to players caught cheating.

the game would be much better for it IMV.

They should have got longer for being stoopid!

How smart is it to look down your strides after dropping the sandpaper down there?... dozens of cameras on them!

They were caught and " they lied " had they admitted the cheating

 first up maybe the outcome may have been less harsh.
