 In the second Test match of India's 2001 tour of South Africa, at St George's Park, Port Elizabeth, match referee Mike Denness suspended Sachin Tendulkar for one game in light of alleged ball tampering.Television cameras picked up images that suggested Tendulkar was scuffing the seam of the cricket ball, though Tendulkar claimed he was actually just removing a piece of grass stuck in the seam of the ball.The incident escalated to include allegations of racism, and led to Denness being barred from entering the venue of the third Test match.
