India Pacer Warned for Dangerous Throw!
16 Jul
Summary
- Gurnoor Brar warned by ICC for dangerous ball throw.
- Incident occurred during first ODI against England at Edgbaston.
- Brar received one demerit point for the offense.
India's fast bowler Gurnoor Brar has been officially cautioned by the International Cricket Council (ICC) for a breach of conduct. The warning stems from an incident during the first One Day International (ODI) against England, which took place at Edgbaston.
During the eighth over of England's innings, Brar, while fielding, picked up the ball and threw it towards the batter in a manner deemed inappropriate and dangerous. This action led to a Level 1 breach of the ICC Code of Conduct, specifically Article 2.9.
As a consequence, Brar has been issued one demerit point, his first such offense in the past two years. The 26-year-old bowler, who debuted last month, also had a successful outing with the ball, taking two wickets for 61 runs. He admitted to the offense, accepting the sanction proposed by the match referee, thus avoiding a formal hearing.
