New Zealand pace sensation Kyle Jamieson has copped a 15% fine of his match fee as he showed dissent towards the umpire’s decision during their second One-day international against Bangladesh in Christchurch. The International Cricket Council announced the same and Kyle Jamieson had one demerit point added to his disciplinary record. It was the 26-year old’s second offence in a 24-month duration.
Kyle Jamieson reacted angrily after the TV umpire ruled his return catch not out off Tamim Iqbal’s bat. According to ICC’s statement, the right-arm speedster admitted to the offence accepted the sanction. Jamieson took a low catch as Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal struck full delivery straight back to the bowler. The on-field umpires asked Iqbal, who was on 34 then, to wait and asked TV umpire Chris Gaffaney to judge if the catch was clean, with the soft-signal as not out.
Kyle Jamieson’s first offence came against Pakistan earlier this year:

Meanwhile, the Auckland-born cricketer’s first offence arrived against Pakistan in a Test match at Mount Maunganui this year. He copped one demerit point and 25 % of his match fee as he breached Article 2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel.
It relates throwing a ball at or near a player in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during an international match, an ICC statement released. Kyle Jamieson threw the ball in Faheem Ashraf’s direction at a high speed even as the batsman was away from the stumps and not intending to take a run.
