Two-match ban on Inzamam

Pakistan stoop to India
TORONTO. Sept 15: A crowd disturbance promp-I ted by a confron-I tation between a i- —I leading player and spectator overshadowed India's seven-wicket victory over Pakistan in the second match of the five-game Sahara Cup series on Sunday, reports Reuter.
Experienced Pakistan Test player Inzamamul Haq inarched into the stands pick-
ing up a bat en route to an ugly face-off with a megaphone wielding spectator, sending a section of the 4,000-strong crowd into a frenzy and halting the match.
Before the situation could escalate. Inzamam was quickly led away by team and match officials while police and ground staff covered on the area where the incident occurred.
As the flag waving fans protested by throwing Dotties and other debris onto the ground at the Toronto Cricket. Skating and Curling Club, officials stopped play and ordered the players to the changing rooms.
After the match, the Internationa] Cricket Council, in consultation with match referee Jackie Hendriks, suspended Inzamam for two one-day internationals and gave him a suspended sentence for one additional match to be enforced if there is any further incident before the end of the year.
India had been cruising to victory at 45-1 from 16 overs, pursuing Pakistan’s pitiful 116 all out total when play was halted.
They resumed their task 37 minutes later. Inzamam taking
up his position in the fielding side.
The seaming wicket made the batsmen's task awkward but experienced Sachin Tendulkar (25 not out) and Mohammad Azharhuddin (21 not out) guided India to a winning total of 117-3 off 34.4 overs.
Following their 20 run victory on Saturday, India held a 2-0 advantage in the five-match series.
Pakistan won the Sahara Cup last year 3-2, in a series telecast to tens of millions in the sub-continent from the cricketing outpost of Toronto.
The teams rarely meet on home grounds because of intense political tension between the nations.
Playing on "neutral" ground in Toronto, cricket officials hoped to use the occasion to promote the game in North America.
However, Sunday's extraordinary scenes did little to advance the cause.
Disturbances at cricket matches are relatively infrequent and the use of megaphones to insult players is something most international players have never experienced.
Acting as a commentator while sidelined with injury. Pakistan captain Wasim Akram told the international television audience that Inzamam was the "calmest guy" in the Pakistan side.
He said Inzamam, a veteran of 144 one-day internationals, told him the spectator had been sweating and hurling insults.
The incident took the gloss of a fine bowling performance from India's young pace attack, particularly Debashish Mohanty (three for 15 from seven overs), his opening partner Abey Kuruvllla (two for 29 from ten) and all-rounder Saurav Ganguly (two for 16 from nine).
Mohanty a new face on the international scene was particularly effective in the helpful conditions, moving the ball in the air and off the seam to confound the Pakistani batsmen.
Only veteran Salim Malik offered any real resistance, his 36 on Sunday followed a 64 in the first match of the series on Saturday.
Ganguly followed up his tidy bowling display by striking 32 runs with the bat. earning him the man-of-the-match award.
The third match in the series was scheduled for Wednesday.
