I really would like to read your opinion on that!
Could you explain to me what a player MIGHT undertake to circumvent current rules?
Is table tennis now at a stage where high-ranked players are cheating????

Yes, you are right, Crisan was disqualified because his racket covering was too thick. I think that Crisan is probably the most talented player in the world, but unfortunately he used a racket that had too thick rubber/sponge of more than 4 mm. I don't think he tried to cheat, I think it was just a bad mistake.
Players at all levels are temprted to circumvent rules, but eventually they are caught. However, the top players in general follow the rules, they may push the envelope to tyhe limit but they try to stay within the rules.
