Sydney: A cricket match in Australia has turned ugly with a batsman shoulder-barging a celebrating bowler, knocking him over and sparking an on field clash. The incident, which has gone viral online, came just days after cricket’s lawmakers, the Marylebone Cricket Club, announced new rules to penalise bad on-field behaviour.

Footage from the incident last weekend shows a paceman for Yackandandah in Victoria state running towards the Eskdale batsman after bowling him out.
