For a Level 1 violation of the ICC Code of Conduct during the Asia Cup match between Afghanistan and Pakistan on September 7, Asif Ali and Fareed Ahmad have been fined 25% of their match money.
Asif was dismissed by Fareed in the 19th over of the second innings of the tense game, leaving Afghanistan needing just one wicket to win. Asif pushed the bowler when he saw Fareed celebrating the dismissal near him. A brief argument followed.
Both players acknowledged their wrongdoing and agreed to the penalties Andy Pycroft, the match referee, had suggested.
