Smith fined, suspended for ball tampering

New Delhi, Mar 25: Australia Skipper Steve Smith has been suspended from the fourth and final Test against South Africa and was fined 100% of his match fee by the International Cricket Council after admitting to ball-tampering charges during the third Test.

We knew that, Australian fielder Cameron Bancroft was captured on camera on Saturday while putting a yellow object down the front of his pants moments before the umpires seemingly inquired about the contents of his pockets.

"Australia captain Steve Smith has been handed a one-match suspension and fined 100 percent of his match fee following his admission yesterday that he was party to a decision to attempt to change the condition of the ball in order to gain an unfair advantage," the International Cricket Council (ICC) said in a statement on Sunday.
