Pakistani pacer Hairs Rauf has been fined 30 per cent of his match fee for rude and aggressive behaviour during the Asia Cup Super Fours match against India on Sunday.
Meanwhile, opener Sahibzada Farhan was given only a warning and did not attract financial penalty for his gun-shot celebration after completion of his half century in the same match.
The ICC reprimanded the two played after completing the hearing on Friday following India's complaint.
"Match referee Richie Richardson had completed his hearing on Friday afternoon at the team hotel. Hars Rauf has been fined 30 percent of his match fees for aggressive behaviour and Farhan has been let off with a warning," a tournament source told PTI on conditions of anonymity.
Rauf and Farhan had pleaded not guilty before the ICC for allegedly provocative actions in the match against India, according to the PTI report.
The issue was heard by match referee Richie Richardson at the Pakistan team hotel here. Both the players appeared before him in person even though the responses given by them were in writing. The two players were accompanied by team manager Naveed Akram Cheema.
Rauf and Farhan were accused of making provocative gestures by the BCCI in a formal complaint on Wednesday. The arch-rivals are set to clash in the final of Asia Cup 2025 on Sunday.
Rauf had mocked the Indian fans in the stands by gesturing about falling planes, while Farhan's celebration after his half century in the game was also seen as offensive by the Indian side.
