Jonathan Trott and Azmatullah Omarzai fined by ICC for misconduct in Afghanistan T20 vs Bangladesh

Afghanistan head coach Jonathan Trott and all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai were fined 15 percent of their match fees on Monday for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct during the second T20 against Bangladesh. Bangladesh won the rain-hit game by six wickets on Sunday to sweep the two-match series.

Former England test batsman Trott showed obvious displeasure towards the umpires’ decision when he was told there would be a weather delay, the ICC said in a news release. Omarzai was sanctioned for giving an inappropriate send-off to Bangladesh batsman Towhid Hridoy in the 15th over. One demerit point has been placed on Trott and Omarzai’s disciplinary records. They are both on their first offence in a 24-month period. The pair admitted their respective offences and accepted the sanctions.
