NZ VS PAK – KHUSHDIL Shah fines for collision with Zakary Foulkes in Christchurch

Pakistan Allrounder Khushdil Shah has been fined 50% of his fighting fees for violating the ICC behavior code during their first T20i against New Zealand in Christchurch.

Khushdil has also been handed over three demolition points. This was his first violation for a 24-month period.

The incident took place during the eighth of Pakistan’s lap when Khushdil hit the third ball from Foulkes past the middle of. He ran into the bowler who got his back facing him with his left shoulder. Umpire had a word with Khushdil after the fighters ran two.

When Khushdil accepted the sanctions that were leveled by the judges and matching Judge Jeff Crowe, there was no need for a formal consultation.

Khushdil top-scored to Pakistan with 32 out of 30 balls in the first T20i, but had a little support from the other end when they were gathered to 91. Opens Tim Seifert and Finn Allen then helped New Zealand chase the goal in 10.1 overs to give them a 1-0 lead.

Pakistan has chosen a new-look page for the tour in New Zealand, with Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan fell as they seem to try a more ‘high risk’ approach.

They hope for a reversal when the action moves to Dunedin for the other T20i.

The two teams are also facing three ODDs after the five T20Is.
