@Vishnu.Reang I completely agree with your suggestions as this technique is very unhygienic, and further I’m also hoping that rest Asian countries too will ban the use of this technique in their local leagues. @7788bitcoin I doubt that they would have used saliva rather they would have preferred loosing the match, as personal hygiene is very important for them.
Cricket is a gentleman's game and unfair means must be banned. If saliva is allowed, then players may ask why sandpaper and Vaseline is not allowed. Now ICC can't specifically ban one of them and allow the other. Either both should be allowed, or all these substances must be banned. And I would prefer the latter. Let these bowlers learn how to swing the ball naturally.
They can still make the ball wet from their sweat and rub it with their pants to shine one side of the ball and thus making the other side a bit rough suitable for reverse swing. The cricket is becoming a batsmen game and all the new rules makes things easy for the batsmen. I think bowlers should be given some room to show their strength too.
, prime example is Warner and Smith why they got an years suspension for tampering the ball, it is simply because the rules are clear, you cannot tamper the ball with a foreign object.
. I hope the ICC will remove the ban when the virus scare is over.
