Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav has reportedly been fined 30% of his match fees for making political comments after the India-Pakistan Asia Cup 2025 game held on September 14.

Yadav dedicated India’s 7-wicket victory to the Pahalgam terrorist attack victims and the Indian armed forces for their bravery during Operation Sindoor. However, PCB took objection and filed a complaint with ICC.

Upon PCB’s complaint, ICC match referee Richie Richardson held a hearing on September 26, where Suryakumar Yadav reportedly pleaded not guilty to charges. 

However, Richardson rejected his plea and found him guilty of breach of the ICC’s level 1 code of conduct. As a result, Suryakumar has reportedly been fined 30% of his match fees.

Not only that, but Haris Rauf is also likely to face a 30% match fee fine after the BCCI objected to his ‘6-0’ gesture on the field during the India vs Pakistan Super Four clash held on September 21.

As reports surfaced on social media, fans had a mixed reaction. While some called it a forced act of neutrality by the ICC, many fans sided with Suryakumar Yadav, judging him innocent.

"When Surya plays with passion, ICC slaps him with a hard 30% fine. But when Haris Rauf spits venom & drags war into cricket, he gets away softly. Double standards are killing the spirit of the game. 🚨🏏" - @Energy_Capital7

That being said, as per media reports, BCCI is likely to challenge ICC’s guilty verdict on Suryakumar Yadav. While the captain was also speculated to receive a demerit point, the ICC is yet to confirm these conjectures.
