South African fast bowler was suspended

London, July 08: South African fast bowler Kagiso Rabada was banned for the second Test against England in the next week. On the first day of the first Test, he is accused of breaching ICC Code of Conduct. On the second day of the first Test match at Lord's, Rabada abused English batsman Ben Stokes.

Rabada has four demerit points. During the first day's play, he was found guilty of violation of Section 2.1.7 of the ICC Code of Conduct, which is related to the use of a language or expression of a batsman during an international match which provokes an aggressive reaction.



On February 8, Rabada had to pay 50 percent of the match fee and three decimal places were also imposed during the match at Cape Town. Now he had four dimet numbers, which resulted in suspension.

The incident occurred on the opening day of the first Test at Lord's when Rabada dismissed Stokes and told him to "f*** off", something Smith thought was not serious enough to earn Rabada another demerit point.
