Head too was sanctioned for breaching Article 2.13 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to the “abuse of a player, player support personnel, umpire or match referee during an international match.”
Siraj and Head received one demerit point each on their disciplinary records, marking their first offence within the last 24 months.
