Trinbago Knight Riders captain Nicholas Pooran has been fined 20 per cent of his match fee after being charged with a Level 1 offence under the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) Code of Conduct.
During the first Eliminator against the Antigua & Barbuda Falcons on Wednesday, which the Knight Riders won by nine wickets, Pooran was seen speaking aggressively to on field umpire Ryan Banwarie.
Pooran, who was named Player-of-the-Match after scoring an unbeaten 90, was subsequently charged with showing dissent at an umpire’s decision.
He accepted the sanction and was fined 20 per cent of his match fee.
The CPL stated that the matter is now closed following the acceptance of the penalty. (CMC)
