Afghanistan vs Netherlands Ball Tampering:<\/strong> One of the famous 'illegal' activities a cricketer can do on the field is to indulge in ball tampering. When found, the ICC, according to the gravity of how much the damage has been done, sends out a penalty. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

During the 3rd ODI between Afghanistan and Netherlands, when Brandon Glover bowled the 31st over of the first inning during which fielder Vivian Kingma was caught tampering with the ball on camera. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Kingma, while trying to shine the ball, put his thumbnail on the seam of the ball and damaged it. The umpires immediately stopped the play to check the condition of the ball and decided to change the ball. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Despite the Netherlands captain Pieter Seelaar discussing the issue with the umpires, Afghanistan were immediately awarded five runs. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
