Afghanistan's captain Rashid Khan has been reprimanded by the ICC for throwing his bat in frustration during the T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 match against Bangladesh when his teammate Karim Janat refused a second run. Rashid's behavior breached Article 2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct, resulting in an official reprimand and one demerit point on his record. Despite the tension, Rashid played a crucial role in Afghanistan's eight-run victory via the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method, securing their first-ever semi-final spot in an ICC event. Afghanistan will face South Africa in the semi-finals. Rashid acknowledged his misconduct and accepted the punishment, avoiding the need for a formal hearing.
