Andrew Gale 'showed dissent at an umpire's decision by word or action'
Yorkshire skipper Andrew Gale has been reprimanded by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) for a level one breach of their disciplinary code.
Gale was reported by umpires David Millns and Peter Willey for “showing dissent at an umpire’s decision by word or action”, according to an ECB statement, during last Friday’s Twenty20 defeat against Durham at Headingley.
Yorkshire were furious on two occasions during the final over of their unsuccessful pursuit of 143.
They felt a shot from Azeem Rafiq had reached the boundary, despite it not being given, and were amazed that a ball from Scott Borthwick, left by Rafiq, was not called wide.
