West Indies women’s players, Aaliyah Alleyne and Qiana Joseph have been found guilty of breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct in the second Women’s ODI against South Africa at the 3Ws Oval in Barbados over the weekend.

Both were found to have breached Article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel which relates to “showing dissent at an umpire's decision during an international match.”

Alleyne was fined 10 percent of her match fee and had one demerit point added to her disciplinary record after gesticulating with open arms and delaying her departure from the field when she was given out by the on-field umpires.

Joseph committed the same offence in a more forceful manner and was fined 50 per cent of her match fee and had two demerit points added to her disciplinary record.

Both Alleyne and Joseph admitted their respective offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Akhtar Ahmad of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Jacqueline Williams, Nimali Perera, third umpire Candace la Borde and fourth umpire Maria Abbott levelled the charges.

Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.
