West Indies pair penalised for ICC Code of Conduct breach
Two West Indies players found guilty of breaching Level 1 of ICC Code of Conduct in ODI against South Africa.
West Indies' Aaliyah Alleyne and Qiana Joseph have both been found guilty of breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct.
The two players were individually cited in the second ODI against South Africa in Barbados, breaching Article 2.8 of the Code of Conduct for Players Support Personnel, in relation to “showing dissent at an umpires decision during an international match.”
Alleyne was fined 10 per cent of her match fee and handed a single demerit point to her disciplinary record after a gesture with open arms and delaying her walk off the field, after she was ruled out by the on-field umpires.
Joseph was found guilty of the same offence in a more forceful manner, and thus fined half her match fee and handed two demerit points for the indiscretion.
On-field umpires Jacqueline Williams, Nimali Perera, third umpire Candace la Borde and fourth umpire Maria Abbott levelled the charges.
The players admitted to their offences and accepted sanctions put forward by Akhtar Ahmad of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees.
