Emirates ICC International Panel: Australian player Kim Garth has been reprimanded for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the third ODI of the ICC Women’s Championship series against India in Perth on Wednesday. Garth was found to have breached Article 2.3 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to the “use of an audible obscenity during an International Match.”

In addition, one demerit point has been added to Garth’s disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.

The incident occurred in the fourth over of India’s innings, when Garth used inappropriate language after being struck for a boundary.
