The ICC reprimanded Afghanistan’s spin duo, Noor Ahmad and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, for violations of the ICC Code of Conduct during their Asia Cup game against Sri Lanka in Abu Dhabi on Thursday.

The penalties were imposed by the match referees as a Level 1 offence in the Code following incidents during the game. Noor, the left-arm wrist-spinner, was found to have violated Article 2.8, which refers to "showing dissent at an umpire's decision." The 19-year-old showed visible signs of frustration after one of his deliveries was ruled a wide, in the 16th over, by the on-field umpire.

Mujeeb was charged with an Article 2.2 violation of the Code for the "abuse of cricket equipment or clothing, ground equipment or fixtures and fittings during an International Match." While on the field, the off-spinner broke the stumps with his towel, which was determined to be a breach of the Code.

Sri Lanka remains unbeaten as Afghanistan bow out after disciplinary matters involving the spin pair

Both have accepted the charges, both are subject to the sanctions proposed by Richie Richardson, ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, meaning there won't be a formal hearing. In addition to the reprimands, both players will receive a demerit point added to their disciplinary record; this is the first offence for both Noor and Mujeeb in a 24-month period. The charges were brought by on-field umpires Asif Yaqoob and Virender Sharma, third umpire Faisal Afridi and fourth umpire Rohan Pandit.

On the field, Sri Lanka maintained their good form in the tournament, winning convincingly by six wickets. Chasing down Afghanistan's target, Sri Lanka made it three wins on the bounce and remain unbeaten in the tournament. For Afghanistan, it was their second loss on the bounce, which knocks them out of the Asia Cup.

While the sanctioning on the field was frustrating, neither Noor or Mujeeb will have to refocus both of them on their upcoming assignments after Afghanistan was knocked out of the Asia Cup. The duo will look to bounce back stronger in the future and be more mindful and not specimen such situation on the field.

In the 11th fixture of the Asia Cup 2025, Sri Lanka will meet their newly built rivals, Afghanistan. SL vs AFG is scheduled to take place on Thursday at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. The two teams have met on 8 occasions in the past, and Sri Lanka holds an advantage with 5 wins against Afghanistan.

After struggling for more than a decade, Sri Lanka is finally witnessing an uprising and an improvement in their quality of cricket. They currently stand at the top of the Group B point table with 2 wins, and their net run rate stands at +1.546. A win will guarantee Sri Lanka a confirmed spot in the next round.

Boost Defenders edged past Band-e-Amir Dragons by 9 runs in Match 10 of the 2025  Shpageeza Cricket League in a nail-biting finish. After being asked to bat first, the Defenders piled up 212/5 on the board, thanks to a composed 86 off 57 balls by Wasim Akram. He received able support from Allah Noor (41 off 23) and Najibullah Zadran (36 off 11), who provided the late fireworks. Mohammad Saleem Safi (2/28) and Nangeyalia Kharote (1/27) were the pick of the bowlers for the Dragons.

In response, Band-e-Amir Dragons made a strong start and stayed in the hunt till the end. Gulbadin Naib made 57 off 26 balls, and captain Hashmatullah Shahidi scored 49 off 37 balls. However, Boost Defenders’ young spinner Noor Ahmad produced a match-winning spell of 5/28, derailing the Dragons' charge. The Bin-e-Amir Dragons finished with 203/8 in their 20 overs and lost by 9 runs.

This result moved Boost Defenders up 4 points with a rate of +0.539 to stay in third position in the table. Band-e-Amir Dragons also sit on four points with a rate of +0.082, just behind the Defenders due to the NRR being less.
