Andrew Symonds floors streaker at the Gabba

SYDNEY – Australia all-rounder Andrew Symonds flattened a streaker who ran on to the field during yesterday’s second tri-series final against India at the Gabba in Brisbane.

The naked man came off second best after he evaded security and charged towards Symonds while he was batting during Australia’s run-chase. Symonds stood his ground as the man approach and dropped the pitch invader with a rugby-style shoulder charge.The man was arrested by police and faces the possibility of a fine and a life ban from the Gabba.Symonds, who briefly contemplated a career in rugby league before he broke into the Australian team, also faces the risk of punishment under the International Cricket Council’s strict code of conduct, which includes a section banning players from any physical assault of a rival player, official or spectator.Nampa-ReutersSymonds stood his ground as the man approach and dropped the pitch invader with a rugby-style shoulder charge.The man was arrested by police and faces the possibility of a fine and a life ban from the Gabba.Symonds, who briefly contemplated a career in rugby league before he broke into the Australian team, also faces the risk of punishment under the International Cricket Council’s strict code of conduct, which includes a section banning players from any physical assault of a rival player, official or spectator.Nampa-Reuters
