Rawalakot Hawks’ skipper Shahid Afridi has been fined five percent of his match fee following a rude send-off to his opponent batsman Zeeshan Ashraf in the final of the Kashmir Premier League (KPL) against Muzaffarabad Tigers.

Hawks beat Tigers by seven runs to clinch the maiden KPL trophy. Zeeshan scored a fiery 26-ball 46 before he was bowled out by Afridi. Before the wicket, Zeeshan had struck a couple of boundaries off Afridi which made him aggressive and hence resulted in a rude send-off.

Final match referee Ali Naqvi questioned Afridi related to this matter and he accepted his mistake.
