Ailsa was found guilty of violating Article 2.2 of the Code, which deals with \u201cabuse of cricket equipment or clothing, ground equipment or fixtures and fittings during an International Match\u201d. The sanction also includes one demerit point added to her disciplinary record, marking her first offence in a 24\u2011month period.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The incident occurred in the 19th over of Scotland\u2019s innings when, after being dismissed, Ailsa threw her bat and gloves to the ground before kicking and knocking over a bin near the dugout.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
She admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by GS Lakshmi of the ICC International Panel of Match Referees, thereby avoiding a formal hearing. On\u2011field officials Claire Polosak and Kerrin Klaaste, third umpire N. Janani, and fourth umpire Nimali Perera reported the matter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand and a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player\u2019s match fee, along with one or two demerit points. Under ICC regulations, when a player accumulates four or more demerit points within 24 months, they are converted into suspension points, leading to a ban.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Chasing the West Indies' target of 154, Scotland's spirited run-chase ended with them being bundled out for 146 on the final ball of the match. The side will next face defending champions New Zealand at Bristol County Ground on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
