Harare, Dec 9: Zimbabwe captain, Sikandar Raza and Ireland players, Curtis Campher and Josh Little have been fined for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the first T20I match between Zimbabwe and Ireland at Harare Sports Club on Thursday.
ICC said in a statement that all three were found to have breached Article 2.20 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “conduct contrary to the spirit of the game.” Zimbabwe had won the match by one wicket, thanks to all-round efforts from Raza.
Raza has been fined 50 per cent of his match fee and received two demerit points. It means he is suspended for the remaining two games of the ongoing three-match series after his accumulated demerit points reached four within a 24-month period following his latest breach of the ICC Code of Conduct.
Raza was charged with aggressively charging towards Campher and Little while breaking away from the umpire. (IANS)
