IPL 2023: Klaasen Fined 10 Per Cent Of Match Fee For Criticising Umpires

Sunrisers Hyderabad wicketkeeper-batter Heinrich Klaasen was fined 10 per cent of his match fee for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during his side's seven-wicket loss to Lucknow Super Giants on Saturday. The South African, who top-scored with a 29-ball 47 to push their total to 182/6, had an animated chat with the leg umpire. He also expressed his dissatisfaction while talking to the broadcasters. "Klaasen admitted to the Level 1 Offence under Article 2.7 which states the use of public criticism/inappropriate comment in the IPL's Code of Conduct," IPL said in a statement.

Avesh Khan bowled a waist-high full toss to Abdul Samad but leg umpire Akshay Totre did not call it a no-ball.

SRH called for a DRS but to their horror, TV umpire Yeshwant Barde also ruled it in favour of the bowling team.

An unruly crowd behaviour followed the incident as Klaasen criticised it in the mid-innings break.

"Disappointed with the crowd to be honest, that's not what you want. That also broke the momentum, not great umpiring either," Klaasen said.

Mishra reprimanded

Lucknow Super Giants' veteran India spinner Amit Mishra was also reprimanded for breaching the IPL's Code of Conduct.

"The leg-spinner admitted to level 1 offence under Article 2.2 of IPL's Code of Conduct which states abuse of equipment during the match. Mr Mishra accepted the sanction." For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee's decision is final and binding, the statement added.

156.7 Kmph Sensation Awaits India Debut, Bangladesh Start Life After Shakib

Pace sensation Mayank Yadav is expected to unleash his raw speed while the absence of India's T20 regulars will provide another opportunity to the fringe players in the three-match series against Bangladesh, beginning here Sunday. Having consistently generated speed in excess of 150kmph in his maiden IPL earlier this year, Mayank had drawn the attention of the cricketing world before a side strain ruled him out of the tournament. Usually, one has to prove fitness in domestic cricket to be considered for national selection but the 22-year-old has been fast-tracked into the side considering his special talent. The series against Bangladesh will be a test of his fitness and temperament. It is yet to be figured if he can display the same accuracy and control that he exhibited in the IPL. Besides Mayank, fellow Delhi pacer Harshit Rana and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy could also make their India debut over the course of the series. Nitish was picked for the Zimbabwe tour post the T...

PCB Not Happy With Pak Star Over Social Media Post On Babar Snub: Report

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is not pleased that Fakhar Zaman questioned the selection panel's decision to sideline Babar Azam from the Test side. The panel dropped former captain Babar Azam when they announced the squad for the remaining two Tests against England in Multan and Rawalpindi. Zaman took to X to question the decision, inviting the ire of the PCB. "The top board officials are not pleased with the tweet sent out by Fakhar and relevant persons are having a word with him about it," a well-informed PCB source said. "It's concerning to hear suggestions about dropping Babar Azam. India didn't bench Virat Kohli during his rough stretch between 2020 and 2023, when he averaged 19.33, 28.21, and 26.50, respectively. "If we are considering sidelining our premier batsman, arguably the best Pakistan has ever produced, it could send a deeply negative message across the team. There is still time to avoid pressing the panic button; we should focus on sa...

"Gambhir, Agarkar Must Have 'Tough Chat' With Bumrah": Ex-SA Star's Advice

Jasprit Bumrah 's participation in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is still not a guarantee, with India's pace spearhead still serving his five-week rest tenure as he attempts to recover from a back issue. Bumrah suffered the injury in the final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. In light of the situation, former South African pacer Vernon Philander has advised that it may be wiser to manage Bumrah's workload and not make him play all of India's games, particularly in "less important matches". Philander emphasized that the team management, presently headed by chief selector Ajit Agarkar and head coach Gautam Gambhir , may need to have a tough chat with Bumrah on resting him for some games. "I think it's more about how the Indian management manages him. They have to manage his workload in between tournaments," Philander said in a media interaction during the SA20 tournament. "I would say, you perhaps want to look at playing him in...
