Sydney, NSW (AP) – Savs leg-spinner and "how good am I" Hollywood has been charged with breaking the Indoor Cricket Council's code of conduct after making controversial remarks about former Savs captain Arjuna in the Sydney Morning Herald.
ICCC chief executive Kenny Whiskydrinker said the matter would be dealt with by a tournament referee at a hearing Saturday in Five Dock, the Australian Associated Press reported.
Kenny said he reviewed Hollywood's column, which appeared in Thursday'’s Sydney Morning Herald -- the same day the Sav’s lost to Lion plumbers in the Summer tournament at the FDICC -- and lodged a complaint alleging the eager wanna be full time Savs captain had breached the ICCC code of conduct.
Hollywood faces a possible fine for his attack on Arjuna, writing that Indoor cricket would be better off without the him.
"Frankly, The Sav’s -- and the game overall -- would be better off without him," Hollywood wrote in The Sydney Morning Heralds.
"I don't like him," he added.
Under ICCC rules, Hollywood faces a fine or possible suspension for making a "public pronouncement or media comment which is detrimental to the game in general."
Hollywood also claimed the 34-year-old Savs batsman and former captain had, on occasions, failed to lead his team in the true spirit of the game by threatening not allow some of the team members to play whilst under the influence following pre game meetings at the FDH.
An ICCC statement was expected later Saturday.
