West Indies Punished For Slow Over-Rate In Fourth T20I Against Australia
Last Updated: West Indies were fined 10% of their match fee for a slow over-rate in the fourth T20I against Australia. Captain Shai Hope accepted the sanction. Australia leads the series 4-0. West Indies have been fined 10 per cent of their match fee for being two overs short of the required rate, even after accounting for time allowances, during the fourth T20I against Australia in St. Kitts on Sunday. '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 five per cent of their match fee for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time," the ICC stated. Captain Shai Hope accepted the sanction proposed by the ICC match officials, avoiding the need for a formal hearing. West Indies have yet to secure a win on Australia's current inbound tour, having lost the Test series 3-0 and now trailing 4-0 in the T20I series. The T20Is have been high-scoring matches, with Australia successfully chasing targets over 200 in each of the last two games. In the third match, the hosts were undone by a Tim David blitz, with the batter scoring the fastest T20I century by an Australian. West Indies performed better in the fourth T20I, but fifties from Josh Inglis and Cameron Green, along with a quick 47 from Glenn Maxwell, helped Australia secure the win in the final over. They'll now aim to end the series on a high note when the two sides meet again at the same venue on Tuesday.

IND vs ENG: Pratika Rawal fined 10% match fee and charged one demerit point for ‘inappropriate ‘physical contact' in two separate incidents
India opener Pratika Rawal has been fined 10% of her match fee for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the first ODI against England in Southampton on Wednesday, after two separate incidents during her innings. In a match that was edgy at times, Rawal was deemed to have made inappropriate physical contact, following two separate incidents which took place within a short period. In the 18th over, she made avoidable physical contact with bowler Lauren Filer while running a single, and after being dismissed in the next over, she made similar avoidable contact with bowler Sophie Ecclestone on her way back to the pavilion. On the first occasion, while running towards the non-striker end, she brushed her shoulder with the back of Filer, who was standing in her follow through and didn't change direction. Both players had their arms spread after incident. Shortly after, when an arm-ball dismissed Rawal, Ecclestone clapped in the direction of the batter and as the Indian walked back, she brushed shoulder with the England bowler. Rawal was found to have breached Article 2.12 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to 'inappropriate physical contact with a Player, Player Support Personnel, Umpire, Match Referee or any other person (including a spectator during an International Match).' In addition to this, one demerit point has been added to Rawal's disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period. Meanwhile, the England team were fined 5% of their match fee for maintaining a slow over-rate 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 5% of their match fee for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time. Rawal and England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt admitted the offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Sarah Bartlett of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for formal hearings. On-field umpires Sue Redfern and Jacquline Williams, third umpire Anna Harris and fourth umpire Rob White levelled the charges. Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50% of a player's match fee, and one or two demerit points. When a player reaches four or more demerit points within a 24-month period, they are converted into suspension points and a player is banned. Two suspension points equate to a ban from one Test or two ODIs or two T20Is, whatever comes first for the player. Demerit Points to remain on a Player or Player Support Personnel's disciplinary record for a period of twenty-four (24) months from their imposition following which they will be expunged

India Star Slammed By ICC For "Avoidable" Incidents In 1st Women's ODI vs England
India batter Pratika Rawal and the England team were on Friday fined for breaching ICC's Code Of Conduct after the conclusion of their opening ODI of the three-match series in Southampton. Rawal was handed a fine of 10 per cent of her match fee and given one demerit point for a Level 1 breach, concerning two separate incidents. Rawal was found guilty of making 'avoidable physical contact' with England bowler Lauren Filer during the 18th over and with Sophie Ecclestone in the following over. 'The Indian opener was penalised for two separate incidents that took place within a short period of time,' the ICC said on its website. 'In the 18th over, she made avoidable physical contact with bowler Lauren Filer while taking a single, and after being dismissed in the next over, she made similar avoidable contact with bowler Sophie Ecclestone on her way back to the dressing room,' it added. One demerit point was thus added to Rawal's record for it being her first offence in a 24-month period. India, who had clinched the five-match T20I series earlier, won the opening ODI by four wickets to take a 1-0 lead. The ICC said it has fined England team of five per cent of their match fee for maintaining a slow over-rate as they were found '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 five per cent of their match fee for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time,' the ICC said. It added, 'Rawal and England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt accepted their respective sanctions imposed by match referee Sarah Bartlett, so there was no need for a formal hearing.'
