ICC Fines Pakistan Captain Fatima Sana for Code of Conduct Breach

By Today News Hours Editorial Desk

Pakistan women's team captain Fatima Sana has been fined 10 per cent of her match fee after being found guilty of violating Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel during a match against India. The breach, classified as a Level 1 offence, occurred in the second over of India's innings when Sana gestured toward the pavilion after dismissing opener Shafali Verma. Alongside the fine, one demerit point has been added to Sana's disciplinary record. This marks her second offence within a 24-month period, following an earlier demerit point she received during the first match of a T20I series against Ireland in Dublin on August 6, 2025.
