Robin Peterson reprimanded for wicket-smashing

8220;Robin apologised to the umpires on the field after the incident and the umpires expressed the view that there was no malice involved in his actions,8221; match referee Jeff Crowe said.

8220;Also, I accepted that it was a momentary mistake in the heat of the moment, an out-pouring of relief after a tense and dramatic finish to the match.

8220;However, all players have a responsibility to maintain the highest standard of behaviour, no matter what the situation, as that is part and parcel of being a high-profile sportsman and hitting the stumps with the bat is not acceptable at any time,8221; he said.

8220;And as well as stressing that point to Robin, I also explained that his action could easily have damaged a very expensive and highly sensitive piece of television equipment, the stump camera,8221; Crowe added.
