Corbin Bosch fined for breaching of ICC Code of Conduct in second T20I win against Australia

South Africa’s star all-rounder Corbin Bosch has managed to grab attention after he was fined by the ICC (International Cricket Council) after he was found in breach of the ICC’s Code of Conduct. He was found in a level 1 breach of the Code of Conduct during the recently concluded second T20I of the series against Australia. 

Notably, Bosch was fined due to the send-off that he gave to Australia’s Ben Dwarshuis. Dismissing the Aussie, Bosch pointed out the batter’s dugout, signalling him to go. 

It is worth noting



that Bosch breached Article 2.5 of the Code of Conduct, which relates to “using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an International Match.”

Furthermore, one demerit point has also been added to Bosch’s record, as it was his first offence in a 24-month period. Speaking of the offence, Bosch admitted to it and accepted the sanction put on him by the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, and henceforth, there was no need for a formal hearing.
