India opener Pratika Rawal has been fined 10 per cent of her match fee for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the first Women’s ODI against England in Southampton on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
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).”<\/p>\r\n\r\n
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.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rawal was charged with 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.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Meanwhile, the England team were fined five per cent 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.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
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.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
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.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
On-field umpires Sue Redfern and Jacquline Williams, third umpire Anna Harris and fourth umpire Rob White levelled the charges.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
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.
