Dhoni fined 75 percent of Match fee for shoving Mustafizur

India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been fined 75 per cent of his match fees for allegedly shoving young Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman during the first ODI at the Sher-e-Bangla stadium yesterday.

Match Referee AJ Pycroft today said Dhoni was charged with Level 2 offence under ICC Code of Conduct for elbowing the debutant pacer while chasing an imposing 308-run target set by Bangladesh. The incident happened in the 25th over of India’s chase when Mustafizur came in Dhoni’s way while completing his follow through as India captain was running for a single. Replays showed Dhoni thudded his left arm into Mustafizur while trying to reach the crease.
