Fatima was discovered to have breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Backing Personnel. The article relates to the employ of language, actions, or gestures that disparage a batter or could provoke an aggressive reaction after a dismissal.

Along with the fine, one demerit point has been continued to Fatima's disciplinary record. This was her second offense within a 24-month period, taking her total to two demerit points during that time.

For context, the latest incident occurred after Fatima dismissed India opener Shafali Verma. This person had created an aggressive start while chasing Pakistan's modest total.

Shafali was dismissed on her sixth delivery after chipping a catch back toward the bowler. After completing the catch, Fatima gestured toward the pavilion.

India's bowlers had earlier dominated the match, dismissing Pakistan for just 55. Fatima responded with the ball by taking three wickets, but India went on to secure a seven-wicket victory. Usman Khawaja Reveals Why He Would Hesitate to Coach Pakistan.

Fatima admitted the offense and accepted the sanctions proposed by Supriya Das of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees. Consequently, there was no need for a formal hearing.

Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand and a maximum penalty of 50 percent of a player's match fee, along with one or two demerit points.

Despite the heavy defeat against India, Pakistan's hopes of reaching the semifinals remain alive. The Green Shirts will face Hong Kong, China, in their next Group A match today, with a victory enough to secure their place in the last four. Stay Connected with ProPakistani.
