The Bangladesh Cricket Board fined the Comilla Victorians' head coach Mohammad Salahuddin 50 percent of his match fees on Sunday for a breach of the BCB Code of Conduct.
In addition, three demerit points were added to the disciplinary record of the Comilla coach.
Following Comilla’s match against Fortune Barishal at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Saturday, Salahuddin was found guilty of breaching Level 2 Article 2.7 of the BCB Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to ‘Public criticism of, or inappropriate comment in relation to an incident occurring in a Match’.
On Sunday, Salahuddin admitted the offense and accepted the sanction proposed by match referee Debabrata Paul, and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.
The charges were leveled by on-field umpires David Millns and Morshed Ali Khan, third umpire Tanvir Ahmed and fourth official Mozahiduzzaman Swapan.
