The incident occurred in the 17th over of Australia\u2019s innings when, after dismissing Ben Dwarshuis, Bosch gestured towards the player\u2019s dugout in a send-off that could have provoked an aggressive reaction from the batter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Subsequently, Bosch was found to have breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to \u201cusing language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his\/her dismissal during an International Match.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
He accepted the sanction proposed by the ICC match officials, avoiding the need for a formal hearing. Coming to the match, South Africa were lifted to an imposing 218\/7 by Dewald Brevis, hitting a blistering unbeaten 125 off 56 balls, the highest individual score by a Proteas batter in T20Is.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Playing in just his ninth T20I match, Brevis, 22, reached his century in just 41 balls and became the youngest men\u2019s T20I centurion for South Africa. He also registered the second-fastest men\u2019s T20I hundred for his country.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In reply, Tim David\u2019s 24-ball half-century kept Australia in contention of chasing the massive total. But three wickets apiece from Bosch and Kwena Maphaka bowled the hosts out for 165, thus sealing a 53-run win for South Africa.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

After hosting the ODI series opener on August 19, Australia and South Africa will go to Mackay for the final two matches on August 22 and 24, respectively. It will also mark the first time the Australian men\u2019s squad plays an international match at the Great Barrier Reef Arena.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
