The incident took place in the 3rd over of the Quetta Gladiators’ run-chase when Jason Roy was trapped with LBW by Multan Sultans’ pacer David Willey. In a viral video, Roy can be seen walking towards his batting partner Saud Shakeel to discuss whether to take DRS after he was given out by the umpire.

However, Iftikhar Ahmed said something to the English batter while joining the team’s wicket celebration. Jason Roy got into an altercation with Ahmed and the two were separated from Multan Sultans’ players.

The 33-year-old accepted the charges levelled against him and pleaded guilty in front of match referee Ali Naqvi, which resulted in no formal hearing.
