New Zealand v Pakistan, 4th ODI, Napier

New Zealand's Kyle Mills has been officially reprimanded for excessive appealing during Wednesday's eight-wicket win over Pakistan at Napier.

The incident reported by umpire Darrell Hair came when Salaam Elahi was caught behind in the 16th over, with Mills accused of celebrating the wicket without bothering to check that his appeal had been upheld. The ICC has recently clamped down on excessive appealing, emphasising that players must wait for an umpire's decision.

"Kyle admitted he did not address the umpire when appealing for a wicket in the 16th over of the Pakistan Innings," said Chris Broad, the match referee, announcing his decision. "This is a level 1.5 breach of the ICC Code of Conduct. Kyle has been officially reprimanded and any reoffending of a similar nature within the next year would automatically see him charged with a level 2 offence which would bring more serious consequences.

"All players have been officially advised by the ICC of the on-field standards of behaviour expected under the code."
