Hasaranga suspended for two T20Is for outburst against umpire


Sri Lanka's T20I skipper Wanindu Hasaranga has been suspended for two coordinates by the ICC following his spat with umpire Lyndon Hannibal in the third T20I against Afghanistan on February 21. Hasaranga was likewise fined half of his match charges and will miss Sri Lanka's initial two T20Is against Bangladesh one month from now. The occurrence had happened after umpire Hannibal didn't manage a high full-throw from Wafadar Momand to Kamindu Mendis as a no-ball. Kamindu had rearranged down the pitch, yet the conveyance would have likely shown up higher than his midsection had he been standing upstanding at the popping wrinkle. This would comprise a no-ball according to the ICC's playing conditions. "Something like that shouldn't occur in a worldwide match," Hasaranga had said. "On the off chance that it had been close [to midsection height], that is not an issue. However, a ball that is going so high… it would have stirred things up around town's head assuming it had gone somewhat higher. In the event that you can't see that, that umpire isn't fit to global cricket. It would be vastly improved on the off chance that he finished another work." Sri Lanka required 11 runs off the last three balls when this happened and in the end lost the match by three races to complete the series 2-1. "Hasaranga was viewed as at fault for penetrating article 2.13 of the ICC Overarching set of rules for Players and Player Backing Staff, which connects with 'Individual maltreatment of a Player, Player Backing Faculty, Umpire or Match Ref during a Global Match'," the ICC said in a proclamation. "Hasaranga's gathering of five bad mark focuses (he got three for this infraction) brings about a change to two suspension focuses. This implies he will either get a boycott for one Test match or two ODIs or T20Is, whichever starts things out, for the player or player support staff." Afghanistan hitter Rahmanullah Gurbaz was additionally fined 15% of his match expense and given one bad mark point for "defying an umpire's guidance during a global match." Gurbaz's offense was "adjusting the grasp of his bat on the field regardless of rehashed admonitions against doing as such," the ICC said. Gurbaz's negative mark focuses count currently remains at two.
