The England and Wales Cricket Board has defended its disciplinary process following a case involving Somerset bowler Craig Overton.
In September he got a two-game ban for allegedly swearing at Pakistan-born Sussex batsman Ashar Zaidi and telling him to "get back to your own country".
However, Yorkshire's Andrew Gale missed four games after a similar exchange with South African Ashwell Prince.
Coach Jason Gillespie says Yorkshire will probably "seek clarification".
New details of the Overton case emerged in a report in the Guardian.
