Samuels was charged by on-field umpires Michael Gough and Simon Fry, third umpire Adrian Holdstock and fourth umpire Paul Wilson when, following his dismissal, he hit and damaged the 30-yard circle disk with his bat on his way to the dressing room after being dismissed for 86.
Samuels admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by match referee Graeme La Brooy and, as such, there was no need for a hearing.
