Other options:

1) Blow the whistle, call both players together, and tell them both to "knock it off." A good coach will see that something is brewing and sit the player for a while.

2) At the next break, tell your partner, in a voice loud enough to be heard by all players, to keep a close eye on A1 and B2. If they know (or think) you're watching, they'll be less likely to act out.

3) Enlist the help of the coach or captain -- "Coach, I need your help with #24. He seems to be getting a little frustrated, and I don't want to have to T him."

The one think I'd try not to do is punish only the losing team.
