Corbin Bosch Reprimanded

South Africa all-rounder Corbin Bosch has been reprimanded for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the second T20I against Australia in Darwin on Tuesday.

Bosch was found to have breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an International Match.”

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

The incident occurred in the 17th over of Australia’s innings, when Bosch, after dismissing Ben Dwarshuis, gestured in the direction of the players’ dugout, which could have provoked an aggressive response from the batter.

Bosch admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Andy Pycroft of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Phillip Gillespie and Shawn Craig, third umpire Sam Nogajski and fourth umpire Donovan Koch levelled the charge.

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.
