The BCCI has banned Harbhajan Singh for five ODIs for slapping India teammate S Sreesanth, following the report submitted by Board-appointed Commissioner Sudhir Nanavati.
The decision was taken after the Disciplinary Committee of the BCCI, comprising President Sharad Pawar, President-Elect Shashank Manohar, and Vice-President Chirayu Amin, met at the Cricket Centre earlier on Wednesday.
The BCCI has warned Harbhajan that any further instance of misconduct will invoke a life ban for him.
Sreesanth was also warned by the BCCI in written. In a letter sent by Board Secretary Niranjan Shah, the volatile pacer has been instructed to mend his ways on the field.
"The Board is constrained to warn Sreesanth for his behaviour on the field and in the event he does not improve his behaviour, the Board would be constrained to take appropriate decision," Niranjan Shah, Secretary of the Board, stated in his
letter.
