Former England cricketer David Lloyd wants cricket to bring in a card system like football, with a yellow card for warning and a red to pull the players out of the game entirely. Lloyd said he has been a proponent of such a rule for a long time, but the cricket administrators have been against it, proposing instead \u2018working with the players\u2019 throughout the course of the match and being on the \u2018same wavelength\u2019 as them.<\/p>\n

The discussion on the Stick To Cricket <\/em>podcast was extended in light of the recent Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, which saw several heated moments across the five Tests. There was Mohammed Siraj shoulder-barging Ben Duckett, England being over-aggressive against the Indian players, and the visitors replying with the same, with Shubman Gill\u2019s explosive outburst against Zak Crawley in the Lord\u2019s Test being the most controversial.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was always on about yellow cards, red cards,” Lloyd said on the podcast. \u201cGive them a yellow card. Give them a red card. Get them off. And they said, \u2018No, you\u2019ve got to try and get on the same wavelength over five days or a four-day game, whatever it is, and try to work with the players.”<\/p>\n

In reply, Michael Vaughan asked him how would the rules apply with real-match examples.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo let\u2019s go back to Lord\u2019s, right? So your yellow card, red card. So Mohammed Siraj gets a 15% fine, doesn\u2019t he, for his little barge? He did, he barged Duckett. Duckett, little Duckett barged on him, didn\u2019t he? So in your system, that\u2019ll be yellow,” Vaughan said.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust a yellow card. And everybody on the ground and watching on TV and radio knows exactly what\u2019s happened. He\u2019s on notice. If he steps out of line again, he\u2019s off the field for the game\u2026” Lloyd said.<\/p>\n

For the Gill-Crawley incident, where there was finger-pointing from India before Ben Duckett swooped in to go chest-to-chest with the visiting skipper, Lloyd said he\u2019d give both yellow cards.<\/p>\n

Then, asked, what would amount as a straight red \u2014 no warning, out from the game straightaway \u2014 and Lloyd said: \u201cStraight red for body contact\u2026 or foul, abusive language, audible. It\u2019s dead simple.”<\/p>\n
