Symonds gets into Streaker Trouble

Did you see the match yesterday, when Symonds smashed into the streaker running into the ground, tackling him, rugby style? Symonds was obviously angry at the silly streaker, but that super-man move of his has gotten him into trouble (as do most things).
Apparently, the ICC has a rule that says a player can be punished for abusing “another player, an umpire or a spectator”. Uh Oh! If the umpires decide to report Symonds for this incident, he could be facing a 10-ODI ban! Not good at all.
On the bright side, the ban will not apply to the IPL mathes, which is what Symonds really cares about
