West Indies coach Stuart Law banned for ODIs over comments

West Indies head coach Stuart Law has been suspended for the first two one-day internationals of the series against India following his public criticism of match officials during a recent test match between the sides in Hyderabad.

In a statement, ICC said Stuart received a 100 per cent fine of his match fees and three demerit points for breaching the International Cricket Council's code of conduct.

Stuart was carrying one demerit point from a previous sanction during the Dominica test against Pakistan in May 2017 and with the addition of three more, it automatically led to his suspension from ODIs.

He will be available for the final three contests of the five-match series.

According to the statement, incident on Sunday afternoon happened when Stuart Law, following the dismissal of Kieran Powell, went to the TV umpire's room and made inappropriate comments.
