Australian star batsman Glenn Maxwell was punished for losing his temper. Although his team Punjab Kings won against Chennai Super Kings yesterday, Maxwell has been punished for violating the code of conduct.
According to a report published in Cricinfo on Wednesday, it is known that Maxwell has been fined 25 percent of his match fee and one demerit point. However, the Australian star has accepted the match referee's decision.
Glenn Maxwell has committed a Level-1 offence under Article 2.2. In the case of a Level 1 offence, the match referee's decision is final and binding. According to Article 2.2 of the Code of Conduct, any act outside the normal course of cricket - kicking a stump or intentionally or inadvertently causing damage to an advertisement board, boundary fence, dressing room door, mirror, window, etc. falls under this offence.
Although he failed with the bat on the day of the punishment, Maxwell did not make a mistake with the ball. Rachin took the wicket of Ravindra for 11 runs in 2 overs. The team also got the victory. All in all, Maxwell spent the night at the Maharaj Jadvindra Singh Stadium in Malanpur, Punjab, with a bittersweet experience.
