ICC Sets Hearings in IndiaPakistan Asia Cup Conduct Row

Hearings under the ICC code will weigh alleged political messaging and provocative gestures.

Overview

  • Match officials have acknowledged reciprocal complaints from the PCB and BCCI and scheduled proceedings to review the cases, according to multiple reports.
  • ICC match referee Richie Richardson has asked Suryakumar Yadav to explain his post‑match remarks and indicated a charge should be brought, offering him the option to accept or face a formal hearing.
  • The BCCI’s complaint targets Haris Rauf’s plane‑crash and ‘6‑0’ signs and Sahibzada Farhan’s gun‑style celebration, with a hearing likely if the players contest the allegations.
  • Reporting notes uncertainty over whether the PCB’s filing met the ICC’s seven‑day reporting window, a procedural point that could influence the case.
  • ACC chair and Pakistan interior minister Mohsin Naqvi posted a video echoing a crashing‑aircraft gesture, drawing scrutiny of neutrality as the disciplinary dispute intensifies during the tournament.
