'Forget And Move Forward', Says Harbhajan On Head-Siraj Send-off
Player Support Personnel: Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has urged the cricketing fraternity to move on from the Travis Head-Mohammed Siraj incident that sparked controversy during the pink-ball Test in Adelaide.
The row, which unfolded on Day 2, saw Siraj deliver a fiery send-off to Head after dismissing him for a well-crafted 140 in Australia’s first innings. The incident led to boos from the crowd and on-field tension that lingered into the match.
While both players appeared to reconcile during India's second-innings batting stint, the ICC stepped in with sanctions on Monday. Siraj was fined 20 per cent of his match fee for breaching the ICC’s Code of Conduct. Head too was sanctioned for breaching Article 2.13 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to the “abuse of a player, player support personnel, umpire or match referee during an international match.”
