Angry Symonds flattens streaker
Symonds clatters the streaker at the Gabba
Australia's Andrew Symonds could face disciplinary action after flattening a streaker during Tuesday's one-day international against India.
Symonds was standing at the non-striker's end during Australia's innings when the man evaded security and ran onto the Brisbane pitch.
The all-rounder then floored the invader with a shoulder charge.
The players' code of conduct forbids physical assault of a rival player, official or spectator.
The sanction for that is a suspension, ranging from five Tests or 10 one-day internationals, up to a life ban.
The streaker, who was escorted from the Gabba field by police, faces a fine of up to £1,400 for the pitch invasion and is expected to be charged with wilful exposure by Queensland state police.
Symonds, who had not scored at that stage, continued to bat with opener Matthew Hayden, eventually falling lbw to Harbhajan Singh for 42.
Former Australia captain Greg Chappell escaped a fine for hitting a streaker on the buttocks with a bat during a match in Auckland, New Zealand in 1976.
