We asked people what they thought about the Australian cricket cheating scandal and what the punishment should be.
Cory Waititi, 41, from Glenholme.
They are pretty good at cheating. It wouldn't be the first time. There's got to be a suspension. I don't know about completely because he's a brilliant player but there should bea stand down and he should be investigated thoroughly.
I thought it was funny to be honest, but I do feel Australia gets let off a little bit so I feel they do need to be punished with a ban, financially or both.

I don't know much about it but a financial penalty would be the best punishment. Then put the money towards better umpiring.
In any profession cheating is not good. They should be banned from the sport for at least five years so they know they made a mistake and don't do it again.
