Smriti Mandhana stands by Harmanpreet Kaur as ICC takes action against Indian skipper; watch what happened in Bangladesh
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has imposed a fine on Harmanpreet Kaur for her behaviour during the third and final ODI against Bangladesh. The ICC has deducted 75 percent of her match fee and added 3 demerit points to her record.
During the match, the captain of India’s women’s cricket team expressed her displeasure with the umpire’s decision by hitting the stumps with her bat after being given out.
She also made critical remarks about the umpiring during the post-match presentation ceremony.
“Why are you here alone? Bring the umpires too. You haven’t tied the match. The umpires did it for you. Call them up. We better have a photo with them as well,” she allegedly said to her Bangladeshi counterpart Nigar Sultana Joty, who staged a walk-out with her players after the alleged comment.
