Ashwell Prince and Kyle Verreynne Reprimanded for ICC Code of Conduct Breach
South Africa batting coach Ashwell Prince and player Kyle Verreynne received official reprimands and one demerit point each for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the third Test against Australia in Cape Town. The breach involved showing dissent at an umpire's decision after opener Marques Ackerman's dismissal, where Prince shouted at umpires and Verreynne delayed Ackerman leaving the field. Both admitted the offences, accepted sanctions, and avoided formal hearings.
