The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Tuesday handed heavy punishment to India women's team skipper Harmanpreet Kaur for her aggressive behaviour during the third ODI against Bangladesh on Saturday. She has been suspended for the next two international matches following two separate breaches of the ICC Code of Conduct. "The incidents occurred during the third match of the ICC Women's Championship series against Bangladesh in Dhaka on Saturday," the ICC said in a release on Tuesday.
"The first incident occurred specifically when Kaur expressed frustration after her dismissal by hitting the wickets with her bat after she was adjudged caught at slip off spinner Nahida Akter in the 34th over of India's innings."
Kaur was fined 50 percent of her match fee for the Level 2 offence and received three demerit points on her disciplinary record.
"She was found guilty of breaching article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, relating to "showing dissent at an umpire's decision"," the ICC said.
Kaur was also fined 25 percent of her match fee for a Level 1 offence relating to "public criticism in relation to an incident occurring in an international match" when, during the presentation ceremony, Kaur openly criticised the umpiring in the match.
