Zimbabwe pacer Kundai Matigimu has been fined 15% of his match fees for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the ongoing second Test against South Africa in Bulawayo. The incident unfolded on Day 1 during the 72nd over of South Africa’s first innings.
After fielding the ball in his follow-through, Kundai Matigimu threw it at the young South African batter Lhuan-de Pretorius, hitting him on the wrist from a short distance.

Matigimu accepted the offense and the sanction, which was proposed by Ranjan Madugalle of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for a formal hearing.
In addition to the fine, one demerit point has been added to Matigimu’s disciplinary record. This is his first offense within a 24-month period.
