March 21 (CRICKETNMORE) - United Arab Emirates fast bowler Mohammad Naveed has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct during his side’s Super Six fixture in the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2018 against Afghanistan at the Old Hararians on Tuesday.
Naveed was found to have violated Article 2.1.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “showing dissent at an umpire’s decision during an international match”.

In addition to the fine, one demerit point has been added to Naveed’s disciplinary record.
The incident happened at the end of the seventh over when Naveed questioned the umpire about his not-out decision.
After the match, Naveed admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by match referee David Jukes. As such, there was no need for a formal hearing.
The charge was levelled by on-field umpires Gregory Brathwaite and Adrian Holdstock, and reserve umpire Joel Wilson.
Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.
