But gooders,when you officiate a match as umpire you must confine yourself in the laws of cricket. You may agree or disagree with this laws but you have to implement this laws. Now please mention in cricket laws is there anything that this tactic is against the sprit of the game? If you were a cricket player and if you played under legendary coaches like Gordon Greeniz or Dave whatmore then you would know how coaches used to teach his players this type of tactics?

If you were a cricket player and if you played under legendary coaches like Gordon Greeniz or Dave whatmore then you would know how coaches used to teach his players this type of tactics? This makes it quite clear that if an umpire considers anything not covered specifically by the Laws to be unfair he - or she - is to intervene. That will include sharp practice and whether it's sharp practice is, like beauty, clearly in the eye of the beholder. And, of course, this action IS justified by a specific provision of the Laws (42.2 - quoted above). It doesn't stop there; it also needs to be reported (Law 42.18) There doesn't have to be a specific 'offence' and umpires need to step in to curb the excesses of coaches and others who seek to get players to do anything to gain an unfair advantage.
