Arshdeep Singh Fined For Code Of Conduct Breach After T20 WC Final Win

Emirates ICC Elite Panel: India fast bowler Arshdeep Singh was fined 15% of his match fee for violating Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the ICC Mens T20 World Cup 2026 Final against New Zealand in Ahmedabad on Sunday. Arshdeep was found to have violated Article 2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel. This article concerns throwing a ball (or any other cricket equipment) at or near a player in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during an International Match. Additionally, one demerit point has been added to Arshdeeps disciplinary record, marking his first offense within a 24-month period. The incident occurred off the fifth ball of the 11th over, with New Zealand already in a difficult position. They were chasing a huge target of 256 and were 102/5 at that time. Mitchell was clearly angry after Arshdeep walked away calmly after hitting him. Arshdeep agreed to the sanction suggested by Andy Pycroft, a member of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so a formal hearing was unnecessary. On-field umpires Richard Illingworth and Alex Wharf, third umpire Allahuddien Paleker, and fourth umpire Adrian Holdstock issued the charge. Level 1 breaches result in penalties ranging from a formal reprimand to a fine of up to 50% of a players match fee, along with one or two demerit points. On-field umpires Richard Illingworth and Alex Wharf, third umpire Allahuddien Paleker, and fourth umpire Adrian Holdstock issued the charge.
