Legendary all-rounder Jacques Kallis today said the recent ball-tampering scandal in South Africa was a "wake up" call for international cricket.
"I think there has been a lot of media and a lot of talk over what has happened in the last few days. It's probably taken up too much of everybody's time," the Kolkata Knight Riders head coach told reporters on the sidelines of their jersey and squad unveiling ahead of season 11 here.
"It's just made players all around the world aware that you have to be careful of what you do. So like I said, it's going to be a big wake up call."
"I do not wish to add too much into it but think it's just been a wake up call for everyone in international cricket. We need to look after this game and make sure we play in the right spirit and the right way."
