Aamir Jamal Fined Heavily for Code Breach
The total fine of PKR 3 million imposed on the players is a significant amount, highlighting the seriousness with which the PCB views breaches of the code of conduct. Aamir Jamal's fine of PKR 1.3 million is the heaviest imposed on any player, underscoring the need for players to be mindful of their actions and their potential impact on the team and the sport as a whole.
Pakistani cricketer Aamir Jamal has been fined PKR 1.3 million for wearing a hat with a political slogan during an interview in the England series, as part of a total of PKR 3 million in fines imposed on eight players for breaching the code of conduct.
The fines were imposed for various incidents that occurred during the recent home and away series against England and Australia. Three players, including Salman Ali Agha, Abdullah Shafique, and Abbas Afridi, were fined PKR 500,000 each for returning late to their hotel during the Australia series. Additionally, four players, including Saim Ayub, were penalized for violating the team's curfew in South Africa.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has chosen not to publicly disclose the details of the disciplinary actions, citing concerns about the potential impact on the players' reputations. This decision comes amid scrutiny following Pakistan's early exit from the ICC Men's Champions Trophy 2025.
The PCB's decision to impose fines on the players reflects the board's commitment to maintaining a high level of discipline and professionalism within the team. The fines serve as a reminder to the players of the importance of adhering to the code of conduct and respecting the team's rules and regulations.
