He actually got banned for swearing? That's got to be the most pathetic thing I have ever seen 😂.

Hobart Hurricanes captain, Matthew Wade, has been suspended for one KFC Big Bash League match.

Wade incurred one suspension point after incurring three Level 1 Code of Conduct breaches within 18 months. The charges in that period relate to two instances of use of an audible obscenity and one instance of abuse of cricket equipment.

Wade will therefore miss today’s match against the Melbourne Renegades at Blundstone Arena.

Tim Paine will replace Wade in the squad of 15 for today's match.

Just stop micing them up if you're going to treat them like 5 year olds that can't say naughty words.
Pretty confident Wade has been pinned by the stump mic rather than player mics. Copping errant throws or swearing after he misses out on a boundary from a ball he thinks he should’ve hit.

Sets a good example for kids if players are being cited for this sort of stuff. Would hate to be a junior coach and having 8-10yo’s swearing their heads off because they heard Wadey doing it on the tv after hitting a poor shot.

Fair call. Sit him down, tell him he's getting a fine and make it a decent one. Explain that it sets a poor example and it won't be tolerated.

To suspend him is a bit extreme.

He is well aware and it is not an isolated incident.

This is my Team so far with 1 trade in hand, not 100% sure what to do with the last trade. Don't see much value in going Rossouw or Hale's to a sub par Sixers bat, especially given the breakevens. Was thinking could go Kuhnemann into Naveed depending on selection? Happy to take some advice.

Social media is designed to get the most views possible, if they have footage that’s going to get the clicks, they don’t care what they’re showing.

Wade knows he’s being recorded on national television. You play a crap shot and get out, own it and get off the field. No need to chuck a tantrum on field. Go and swear your head off in the change room like the rest of us.

Do you really expect those handling the administration of accounts to be well versed in the codes of conduct for the relevant sport set by the governing body/authority/etc and undergo a rigorous process/checklist to ensure content is moderated before posting?

Good old Wade , lucky Faf didn't wrap the bat around his head when Dooley bowled him

Player does wrong , yet they can bring in a replacement player from outside their Squad , don't agree with that at all
