IND vs ENG, 3rd Test: Mohammed Siraj Slapped Fined With 15% Of His Match Fees After Roaring On Ben Duckett's Face At Lord's

Team India pacer Mohammed Siraj has been slapped with a fine following his on-the-face celebration against England opener Ben Duckett on day four of the third Test at the Lord's Cricket Ground. The ICC has deducted Siraj's 15 per cent of the match fee for breaching Level 1 of ICC Code of Conduct.

The incident occurred when Siraj dismissed the Nottinghamshire opener in the first session of play on day four. With tempers flaring high between the two sides on day three, Siraj was fired up and got rewarded with Duckett's wicket following a probing spell. Nevertheless, the 31-year-old roaring at Duckett's face, followed by brushing the shoulder sparked plenty of controversy.

You can't escape the DSP! 🚨
