espncricinfo.com

Khushdil Shah has been fined 50% of his match fees and received three demerit points for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct during the first T20I against New Zealand in Christchurch. This was his first offence in 24 months. The incident occurred when Khushdil collided with bowler Foulkes while running between the wickets. The umpire addressed the situation after the batters completed a run. Khushdil accepted the sanctions, so no formal hearing was required. Pakistan's team is undergoing changes, with key players Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan dropped. They lost the first T20I, scoring only 91 runs, while New Zealand chased the target in just over 10 overs. The next match will be in Dunedin.
