Hyderabad Kings fast bowler Muhammad Ali has been fined 10% of his match fee for breaching the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Code of Conduct during an Eliminator match against Islamabad United in PSL 11.
According to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), the penalty was imposed after Muhammad Ali was found guilty of a Level One offence under the league’s disciplinary regulations. The nature of the violation was not fully detailed in the statement, but it falls under on-field conduct rules governed by PSL standards.
The incident took place during the second Eliminator, where tensions were high due to the knockout stage pressure. Match officials reported the matter, following which the disciplinary process was initiated in line with PSL protocols.
Under PSL regulations, Level One offences typically include minor breaches of conduct such as inappropriate gestures, dissent against umpiring decisions, or unsportsmanlike behaviour. Such violations usually result in fines or warnings rather than suspension.
Muhammad Ali accepted the sanction imposed on him, and no further disciplinary action has been announced. The player remains eligible for selection in upcoming matches.
