Ismat was found to violate Article 2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which pertains to “throwing a ball at or near a player in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during an international match.”
In addition, one demerit point has been recorded against Ismat’s disciplinary record, as it was his first offence within a 24-month period.
The incident happened in the 90th over of Zimbabwe’s first innings when Ismat fielded the ball during his follow-through and threw it dangerously close to batter Tafadzwa Tsiga.
Ismat acknowledged the offence and agreed to the sanction recommended by Richie Richardson of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for a formal hearing.
On-field umpires Adrian Holdstock and Nitin Menon, along with third umpire Forster Mutizwa and fourth umpire Percival Sizara, issued the charge.
Level 1 breaches result in a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, up to 50 per cent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.
