adminPORT ELIZABETH. — Warring South Africa and Australia will be summoned for peace talks ahead of the potentially explosive second Test cricket starting today after David Warner and Quinton de Kock were both punished for an ugly bust-up in the opening match. The International Cricket Council said that match referee Jeff Crowe will remind the teams of their responsiblities after Australian vice-captain Warner was fined 75 percent of his match fee from the Durban game and the Proteas wicketkeeper/batsman docked 25 percent.
“Mr. Crowe has convened a meeting of the captains and managers of both sides at St George’s Park to outline his expectations relating to player behaviour during the second Test starting on Friday,” said an ICC statement. — AFP.
