Sharjeel Khan, the opening batter for Ghani Glass, has been fined 25% of his match fee for breaching the PCB's code of conduct during his team's fourth-round match against Eshaal Associates in the ongoing President’s Cup One-Day 2024-25 at Iqbal Stadium, Faisalabad, on Wednesday.

Sharjeel was found guilty of violating Article 2.8 of the PCB's code of conduct, which pertains to showing dissent at an umpire’s decision. The incident occurred on the first ball of the match when Sharjeel was given out caught behind off the bowling of Asad Raza from Eshaal Associates.

The charges were brought by on-field umpires Imranullah Aslam and Ghulam Sarwar. Sharjeel accepted the charge and the fine imposed by match referee Kamran Chaudary
