Jayden Seales and Kevin Sinclair fined for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct
West Indies bowlers, Jayden Seales and Kevin Sinclair have been found guilty of breaching the ICC Code of Conduct in their recently concluded second Test match against Bangladesh.
Seales has been fined 25 per cent of his match fee after being found to have breached article 2.20 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel which relates to "conduct that is contrary to the spirit of the game."
In addition to this, one demerit point has been added to Seales' disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.
The incident occurred in the first over of Bangladesh's second batting innings when Seales made an inappropriate and overly aggressive gesture towards the opposition's dressing room after taking a wicket.
Sinclair has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee after he was was found to have breached Article 2.4 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to "Disobeying an Umpire's instruction during an International Match."
In addition to his fine, one demerit point has been added to Sinclair's disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.
The incident took place when Sinclair ignored the instructions of the on-field umpires to stop using language deemed aggressive and harsh towards the Bangladesh batters.
Seales and Sinclair admitted their respective offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Jeff Crowe of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.
On-field umpires Asif Yaqoob and Kumar Dharmasena, third umpire Nitin Menon and fourth umpire, Zahid Bassarath 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.
