Aneesh during day two\u2019s play in the Ranji Trophy final at the KSCA Ground on Wednesday.<p>A BCCI official told IANS that Dogra has been fined 50 percent of his match fee shortly after day two\u2019s play ended. \u201cIn addition to this, two demerit points have been added to Dogra\u2019s disciplinary record, as per the playing conditions for men\u2019s multi-day matches,\u201d further said the official.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The incident occurred in the 101st over of J&amp;K\u2019s first innings, when Dogra and Kanhaiya Wadhawan attempted to steady the innings after early setbacks. Shortly after edging a delivery from Prasidh Krishna to the boundary, Dogra exchanged words with Aneesh, who was stationed at silly point.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dogra then advanced towards Aneesh and headbutted him while still wearing his helmet, prompting immediate intervention from on-field umpires Rohan Pandit and Ulhas Gandhe, as well as Karnataka opener Mayank Agarwal and captain Devdutt Padikkal. Later, Dogra was seen apologising to Aneesh.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) said it would comply with the aforementioned decision, noting that the sanction was in line with established norms by the BCCI and the match referee\u2019s ruling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cWhatever has been done now is as per the BCCI norms and we have to follow them. Plus, we have to follow the decision made by the match referee for this final, who is Vengalil Narayanan Kutty,\u201d said a JKCA official to IANS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) said it would comply with the aforementioned decision, noting that the sanction was in line with established norms by the BCCI and the match referee\u2019s ruling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h5><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/live-cricket-score\">Live Cricket Score<\/a><\/h5><p>Coming to the match, Dogra and Kanhaiya Wadhawan struck 70 each while Sahil Lotra was unbeaten on 57 to ensure Jammu &amp; Kashmir, chasing their first Ranji Trophy title, reached 527\/6 in 126 overs at the end of day two\u2019s play, before bad light brought an early end to the proceedings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h5>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/h5>",
