Nash appeals against ban
AUCKLAND, Dec 24: New Zealand all-rounder Dion Nash has appealed against his 13-day ban from domestic cricket for breaching the code of conduct by abusing an opposition player and an umpire in Auckland’s four-day game against Otago last week.
The appeal was brought by Auckland Cricket who, while not arguing with the reasons for the ban, were concerned about its length and how it would affect the province’s chances in the four-day championship and the first two games in the one-day competition.
A decision by New Zealand Cricket on the appeal is not expected until Friday when Nash is expected to start his ban by missing Auckland’s four-day championship game against Northern Districts in Hamilton.—Reuters
