One-match Shield suspension for Richardson

South Australia fast bowler Kane Richardson will miss their next Sheffield Shield game, against Western Australia from February 16, after being suspended for using foul language during a grade cricket match.

He was given a one-match suspension for breaching Cricket Australia's code of behaviour while turning out for East Torrens on February 1. According to a CA report, Richardson had employed "inappropriate language and conduct against the spirit of cricket". His Shield ban was in addition to a three-game A-Grade match ban - with two games suspended pending good behaviour - and a one-match suspension from the one-day competition.
