ICC Fines Suryakumar Yadav and Haris Rauf, Warns Sahibzada Farhan After Asia Cup Hearings

The rulings follow reciprocal board complaints during a fraught tournament, leaving all three eligible for the Sept. 28 final.

Overview

  • Match referee Richie Richardson ruled Level 1 breaches, docking Yadav and Rauf 30% of their match fees and issuing Farhan an official warning.
  • Rauf was cited for aggressive gestures toward fans during the Sept. 21 Super Four game, including a ‘6-0’ sign and a plane‑crash motion.
  • Farhan’s gun‑style bat celebration after his half-century prompted the BCCI complaint; he told the hearing it reflected a Pashtun celebratory tradition.
  • Yadav was fined over post‑match remarks after the Sept. 14 group match that the PCB reported as political references.
  • All three pleaded not guilty; the BCCI has appealed Yadav’s sanction, with formal ICC confirmation expected post‑tournament and the players available for the final.
