"Asad was reported by on-field umpires Faisal Afridi and Saqib Khan at the end of third day's play for violating article 2.8 of the PCB Code of Conduct for Players and Player support Personnel," it added.

Asad accepted the charge and the sanction handed out by match referee Mohammad Anees, hence, there was no need of a formal hearing. (ANI)
