If there is a threat of being banned for slow over rates, why not make a fringe player captain (in name only). The 'usual' captain makes all the decisim sure lanka did this in the last major comp and sanga or mahela went captain not to get matthews a ban i think? was frowned upon by all in the media. they were only playing to the laws, were the laws tweaked after that?https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30232329/banned-captains?post_id=538654611#538654611im sure lanka did this in the last major comp and sanga or mahela went captain not to get matthews a ban i think? was frowned upon by all in the media. they were only playing to the laws, were the laws tweaked after that?Sat, 29 Mar 2014 14:31:57 -05001 match ban coming up for the electrician?https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30232329/banned-captains?post_id=538647077#5386470771 match ban coming up for the electrician?Sat, 29 Mar 2014 08:38:38 -0500Presumably 'that's not cricket!'https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30232329/banned-captains?post_id=538646965#538646965Presumably 'that's not cricket!'Sat, 29 Mar 2014 08:33:15 -0500But a ban wouldn't be handed out, because it would be his first offence.Why not just not drag ass? If you want to be a captain, make a fcuking decision instead of having these ridiculous mothers club meetings every ball.https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30232329/banned-captains?post_id=538646959#538646959But a ban wouldn't be handed out, because it would be his first offence.Why not just not drag ass?

Why not make Lumb captain (in name). Then England (broad) can take as long as he likes with decisions and bell replaces Lumb for the Netherlands game.

Better to get decisions right today and lose Broad v Neth, than rush through today and still have that pressure if they make the semis??https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30232329/banned-captains?post_id=538646869#538646869England are better off not worrying about this today arent they?

If India were to lose Dhoni, it would impact their team far more than losing a lesser player.https://community.betfair.com/cricket/go/thread/view/94046/30232329/banned-captains?post_id=538646581#538646581I just think that the punishment doesn't really fit the crime...

I see what you are saying, but there is zero reason they should go over the rate anyway. England were about 30 minutes over the other day.
