South Africa were penalised five runs for ball tampering and the team will likely be

the subject of a hearing after play :

on the third day of the second Test against Pakistan in Dubai.

Law 42.3, which deals with changing the condition of the match ball
  • (d) If the umpires together agree that the deterioration in the condition of the ball is greater than is consistent with the use it has received, they shall consider that there has been a contravention of this Law. They shall:
  • (i) change the ball forthwith. It shall be for the umpires to decide on the replacement ball. It shall, in their opinion, have had wear comparable to that which the previous ball had received immediately prior to the contravention.
  • Additionally the bowler's end umpire shall,
  • (ii) award 5 penalty runs to the batting side.
  • (iii) inform the batsmen that the ball has been changed.

No individual player has been charged yet but television images showed

one of the South African players rubbing the ball allegedly :

on the zipper of his trouser pocket.... :-[

The incident took place at the start of the 31st over of Pakistan's innings, two overs after tea,

when umpires Ian Gould and Rod Tucker called South African captain Graeme Smith for a chat.

The fourth umpire, Shozab Raza, brought a box of balls onto the field :

and a new one was selected for use.

The last time a player was penalised for changing the condition of the ball was in 2010 :

when Shahid Afridi was banned from two T20s for biting the ball .  ::LOL::

South Africa were well in control of the Test,

having taken a commanding 418-run first-innings lead,

when the incident occurred.

Very disappointing for sure, why risk it in such a commanding position?
Takes some shine off the performance so far (no pun intended).

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0
