West In­dies fast bowler Alzarri Joseph has been fined 25 per cent of his match fee for breach­ing the ICC Code of Con­duct in the first One Day In­ter­na­tion­al against Bangladesh on Sun­day.

The in­ci­dent took place be­fore the start of play, when Joseph used of­fen­sive and abu­sive lan­guage dur­ing an ex­change with the fourth um­pire Gre­go­ry Brath­waite who had asked him to re­frain from step­ping on­to the pitch with his spikes on.

As a re­sult of the breach, Joseph has al­so re­ceived one de­mer­it point, mark­ing his sec­ond of­fence in a 24-month pe­ri­od. The sanc­tion was ac­cept­ed by Joseph, who ad­mit­ted to the of­fence and agreed to the pro­posed penal­ty.

This de­ci­sion was made in con­sul­ta­tion with Jeff Crowe of the Emi­rates ICC Elite Pan­el of Match Ref­er­ees, and no for­mal hear­ing was deemed nec­es­sary.

The charge was levied by on-field um­pires Ku­mar Dhar­mase­na and Leslie Reifer, third um­pire Asif Yaqoob, and fourth um­pire Gre­go­ry Brath­waite.

Lev­el 1 breach­es un­der the ICC Code of Con­duct 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.
