Balochistan players Mohammad Junaid and Akhtar Shah have been fined 50-percent of their match fee for level 2 offences relating to personal abuse of a player, player support personnel, umpire or match referee during a match in their team's National U-19 three-day match against Northern at Jinnah Stadium, Sialkot

The incidents happened last Tuesday, when Junaid, captain of the Balochistan side, was charged for passing offensive and suggestive remarks against umpire Saleem Butt.

Akhtar Shah was reported by the umpires for frequently marching towards the batsmen and using abusive language. Junaid and Akhtar were charged by on-field umpires Mir Dad and Saleem Butt for violation of clause 2.13, of the PCB Code of Conduct for Players and Player support Personnel.

Both pleaded guilty and accepted the sanctions imposed by match referee Khalid Jamshed.
