Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum fine of 50 per cent of a player\u2019s match fee, and one or two demerit points added to their record. When a player reaches four or more demerit points within 24 months, they are converted into suspension points resulting in a ban. Two suspension points equate to a ban from one Test or two ODIs or two T20Is, whichever comes first for the player.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
