Debutant allrounder Pandya penalised for celebration following maiden wicket in Australia Day T20

India's fast bowling allrounder Hardik Pandya has been sanctioned for giving Australia's Chris Lynn a send-off in the Australia Day KFC T20 INTL match in Adelaide. Called in for his international debut Pandya had a less than auspicious start to his international career, bowling an 11-ball opening over that included his first three deliveries being called wides.

Pandya was given an official reprimand for breaching the International Cricket Council's Code of Conduct. He was sanctioned under the clause which relates to “Using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batsman upon his/her dismissal during an International Match”.

In the 15th over of Australia's ultimately unsuccessful run-chase, Lynn had dispatched Pandya for a monster 107m straight six into the Adelaide Oval stands. On the last ball of that over Lynn laced a wide delivery that stung the hands of Yuvraj Singh who completed the catch, sparking Pandya's wild celebration. The on-field umpires Simon Fry and John Ward levelled the charge against Pandya and ICC match referee Jeff Crowe imposed the sanction.
