Pant was found to have breached Article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to 'showing dissent at an Umpire's decision during an International Match.'

One demerit point has been added to Pant's record
In addition to this, one demerit point has been added to Pant's disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.
The incident occurred towards the end of the 61st over of England's first innings, when the umpires checked the shape of the ball with the ball gauge and decided not to change it. Pant showed dissent at the umpires' decision by throwing the ball on the ground in front of the umpires.
Pant admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Richie Richardson of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Paul Reiffel and Chris Gaffaney, third umpire Sharfuddoula Ibne Shahid and fourth umpire Mike Burns levelled the charge.
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.

Doshi was one of only four Test bowlers who debuted after the age of thirty and went on to take over 100 wickets. In Test cricket, Doshi made his debut in Chennai against Australia in September 1979, already in his 30s. He immediately made an impact, with figures of 6/103 and 2/64 – India's best bowler in the match. He continued to perform well throughout the series, and in the final Test in Bombay (Mumbai now), he was instrumental in India's victory, wih figures of 5/43 and 3/60. One of his most memorable performances was at Eden Gardens in Calcutta, his adopted hometown, where he took 4/92 in front of a 70,000-strong crowd. After that series, Doshi secured his place in the Indian Test side. However, in the following years, he struggled to establish himself as a regular match-winner at the international level. His only significant match-winning effort after the Australian series came in Bombay (Mumbai now) against England in the 1981-82 series, where he took 5/39, helping India secure a crucial first innings lead in a low-scoring match. The emergence of Maninder Singh during the 1982-83 season ultimately brought an end to Doshi's Test career. Doshi is widely regarded as one of the poorest batters in history of Test cricket, with a batting average of just 4.60. He also holds the record for the most Test innings in a career without ever batting above someone else in the order, with 38 innings batting at number 11. Dilip Doshi ODI Record In ODIs, Doshi made his debut during the 1980-81 tour of Australia. Against New Zealand at the Gabba, he achieved his best figures of 4/30. Despite his impressive ODI average (23.81) and economy rate (3.96), his fielding was not very agile, and his batting was limited. Consequently, he played only 15 ODIs for India, with all-rounder Ravi Shastri being preferred for the 1983 World Cup. Dilip Doshi Domestic Record In first-class cricket, Doshi continued to play, though his impact was limited. He made his first-class debut with Saurashtra, but played most of his Ranji Trophy cricket with Bengal. For Bengal, he achieved remarkable figures of 6 wickets for 6 runs against Assam in 1974. His long Ranji Trophy career shows 318 wickets at an impressive average of 18.33. Doshi also played first-class cricket for Nottinghamshire and Warwickshire in England. His overall first-class career saw him take 898 wickets at an average of 26.58. In March 1983, he led a West Bengal side on a short tour of Dhaka. In the three-day match, he led his team to an emphatic win with figures of 7/39 and 5/74. His spin proved too challenging for the Bangladeshi batsmen, as he also took 3/27 from nine overs in the 45-over match.

Doshi made his Test debut for India at the age of 32 in 1979 and went on to represent the nation in 33 Tests and 15 ODIs between 1979 and 1983. Known for his classical left-arm spin, he claimed 114 Test wickets, including six five-wicket hauls, and 22 ODI wickets. His career also saw him excel in first-class cricket, where he amassed 898 wickets from 238 matches. Only once in 82 Tests played so far at Headingley in the last 126 years has a team managed to chase down a total of more than 370 runs. The feat was achieved by the Don Bradman-led Australian team against England in July 1948. England's highest successful run chase in a Test match played at Headingley is 359 against Australia, which he achieved during the 2019 Ashes series. First Published:

IND vs ENG, Leeds Weather Live Updates: Hover Cover Is Off

India vs England, Leeds Weather Today Live Updates: It cannot be better poised than Ben Stokes and Co. needing 350 runs to win with all 10 wickets in hand for the final day of the first Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Although they ended Day 4 with a confidence-boosting spell of 21/0 from openers Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley, keeping Jasprit Bumrah out on a fifth-day wicket won't be easy. The pitch, according to KL Rahul, will behave like a 'subcontinent wicket' with dry and rough patches –which should work in India's favor by bringing Ravindra Jadeja into the picture, too. But the visitors' issues are prominent elsewhere — in uncertainty on how Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, and Shardul Thakur will perform in conditions that don't directly aid their strengths. Both teams have dropped the gauntlet already — Rahul said that there 'definitely' will be a result today, while Josh Tongue said England aren't thinking about a draw — but we cannot discount the English weather. Rain hasn't affected the match much so far, but today, there's a real possibility of significant delays, which might force us into a shared result. Stay tuned as we bring you all the real-time updates!
