Afridi ball biting incident – was the suspension long enough?

Question

Shahid Afridi was suspended for two matches for ball tampering after biting the cricket ball in Pakistan’s final ODI against Australia in January 2010. But with a previous record including pitch tampering in 2005 the question has to be asked: was the two match suspension (the maximum available penalty) handed down to the stand-in captain enough? Surely, a repeat offender should be handed a longer ban – perhaps double that available for a first offence.
