Messing with Vaibhav Suryavanshi proved costly! Action against Sri Lankan players, interventionist Dickwella also punished

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Fight and India A vs Sri Lanka A Controversy: The controversy that broke out on the field after the match between India A and Sri Lanka A played on June 15 in Dambulla has now proved costly for the players. Sri Lanka Cricket has taken disciplinary action in connection with the heated argument and alleged pushing between Indian batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi and some Sri Lanka A players after the match ended.

According to the Cricbuzz report, the board has taken action against the players who were involved in the post-match brawl. These include Sri Lanka A player Vishen Halambage. It is said that there was a heated argument between Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Halambage, which later turned into a tense atmosphere and a push-like situation was created between the two players.

Reduction in players’ match fees

However, Sri Lanka Cricket has not yet made public how much punishment has been imposed on which players. The report claims that the match fees of the players involved in the controversy have been cut, but no detailed official information has been released by the board in this regard.

Pradeep Jayapragash was playing the role of match referee in this match. This action was taken against the players concerned after the incident was reviewed at their level. At the same time, it is not clear whether any disciplinary action has been taken against any Indian player regarding this entire incident or not.

Action also taken against Dickwella who intervened

Another interesting aspect has emerged in the report. Sri Lanka A’s experienced wicketkeeper-batsman Niroshan Dickwella has also been penalised. However, he was not among those who escalated the controversy, but was among those who calmed it down. According to the information, when the argument escalated between Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Vishen Halambage, Dickwella tried to control the situation by separating the two players. Despite this, disciplinary action was taken against him also.

According to the report, Dickwella has been punished not because of the Suryavanshi-Halambage controversy, but for excessive appeal during the match. For this reason his match fee was also reduced.
