Afghanistan captain Hashmatullah Shahidi receives an official reprimand and a demerit point from the ICC for damaging the pitch during the third ODI against India. Both outlets report that the sanction follows an incident involving pitch damage in the match. Despite the reprimand, Shahidi scores a maiden century in the game. India, however, wins convincingly by nine wickets and completes a 3-0 series sweep against Afghanistan. After the match, Shahidi says Afghanistan’s performance falls short against a stronger Indian side. The reports do not indicate any further disciplinary action beyond the ICC’s reprimand and the demerit point. Overall, the match outcome remains unchanged: India secures a dominant win while Shahidi’s individual century is not enough to prevent Afghanistan’s defeat in the series finale.
