Ball tampering.

They've also lost their IPL spots, which means over a million each to them.
Seems the ball tampering was Warner's idea, and Smith allowed it. Bancroft did as told. Warner banned from any future leadership role.

All mens sport in Australia needs to take this as a wake up call. Too much whinging, to much entitlement, too much aggression, too much selfishness, too much money.

Netball
Rugby
Cricket
Football
New AFL teams

They are playing for the love of the game.. it sure isn't for the money.

I agree with the wake up call.... but do you really think if the women were not getting paid that they would do it for the fun of it?
I highly doubt it.
