ADELAIDE (Web Desk) – Former West Indies legendary batsman Brian Lara has offered to pay the fine imposed on Pakistani fast bowler Wahab Riaz terming it ‘ ridiculous’ reaction of ICC.
The former cricketer, while talking an India based TV, said it was ridiculous that the International Cricket Council fined Wahab Riaz for his altercation with Shane Watson.
Lara appreciated the pacer for producing a fantastic spell against the Australian batsman during the quarterfinal match at Adelaide oval.
Riaz was asked by International Cricket Council (ICC) to pay his 50% of the match fee as a fine over his argument with Australian batsman Watson. However Watson was fined 15% of his match fee.
