Pak pacer Hasan Ali reprimanded for breaching ICC Code of Conduct


Dubai, Nov 20 (IANS): Pakistan pace bowler Hasan Ali was on Saturday reprimanded for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the first T20I against Bangladesh in Dhaka on November 18.

Hasan Ali was found to have breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to "using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an international match."

Also, one demerit point has been added to the disciplinary record of Hasan Ali, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.

The incident occurred in the 17th over of Bangladesh's innings, when the Pakistan pace bowler gave an inappropriate send-off to batter Nurul Hasan after dismissing him caught behind the wicket.

The Bangladesh team has also been fined 20 per cent of its match fees for maintaining a slow over-rate in the match as they were ruled to be one over short of the target after time allowances were taken into consideration.

In accordance with Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to minimum over-rate offences, players are fined 20 per cent of their match fees for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time.

"Hasan and Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah admitted the offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Neeyamur Rashid of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees and ratified by the ICC Cricket Operations department as per the COVID-19 interim playing regulations. There was no need for formal hearings," ICC said in a statement.

On-field umpires Sharfudoulla Ibne Shahid and Masudur Rahman, third umpire Gazi Sohel and fourth official Tanvir Ahmed levelled the charges.

Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player's match fee, and one or two demerit points.
