Ashraful, Mushfiqur fined

Dubai: Bangladesh captain Mohammad Ashraful and wicket-keeper Mushfiqur Rahim were on Wednesday fined for excessive and aggressive appealing during the third day’s play in the second cricket Test against Sri Lanka in Chittagong.

While Ashraful has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee, Mushfiqur has been docked 50 per cent of his earnings from the game.

The penalties were handed down by match referee Jeff Crowe following hearings which were held in Chittagong on Tuesday after the conclusion of the Test which Sri Lanka won by 465 runs.

Ashraful was found to have breached Level 1.5 of the code which relates to “excessive appealing,” while Mushfiqur was found guilty of a charge under Level 2.5 of the code which deals with “charging or advancing towards the umpire in an aggressive manner when appealing.” — PTI
