Similar Incidents in Cricket

It looks like cricket is so far failing to address the continuous anger fueled by excessive celebration of most players. They are not alone as other sportspersons have also been captured and culprits of being fined variable amounts of money. Only recently Ishant Sharma was fined for 15% of his match fees due to his aggressive unreasonable sendoff of a rival player and also Virat Kohli was encouraged to part with 20% of his fees due to breaches against a fan rule of not having contact a physical encounter with a new debutant.
