Ishant Sharma suspended, Sri Lankans fined!
X
Indian pacer Ishant Sharma has been suspended by International Cricket Council (ICC) for one Test match after being found guilty of breaching the ICC Code Of Conduct during the 3rd Test against Sri Lanka.

A verbal alteration took place between Ishant Sharma and Sri Lankan players Dinesh Chandimal, Dhammika Prasad and Lahiru Thirimanne. This incident happened when the Team India Bowler came for batting after the fall of 9th wicket in the Second Innings.

ICC didn't even spare the Sri Lankan Cricketers who violated the Code Of Conduct. While Dinesh Chandimal was suspended for one ODI, Dhammika Prasad and Lahiru Thirimanne fined 50% of their match fee.

Due to the suspension, Ishant Sharma is likely gonna miss the first Test Match against South Africa during the upcoming 'Gandhi-Mandela' series.
