LAHORE: Lahore Qalandars' all-rounder Sikandar Raza has been fined 10% of his match fee following a Level 1 breach of HBL PSL's code of conduct for displaying dissent at an umpire's decision.

The incident transpired during the Lahore Qalandars-Quetta Gladiators match at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi on Sunday night. Sikandar's actions included raising his arms, shaking his head, and gesturing on three different occasions during the game, expressing disagreement with the umpire's decision regarding a delivery's width. This behavior led to a violation of Article 2.8, specifically addressing a player's dissent at an umpire's decision during an HBL PSL match.
