The incident has raised questions over whether match referee Pradeep Jeyapragash will impose sanctions and what exactly the ICC Code of Conduct says in such cases.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"5\"\/> <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>What exactly happened after the match?<br \/><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>India A had managed only nine runs while chasing 17 in the Super Over, suffering their second successive defeat. <!-- -->Sooryavanshi, who faced the final three deliveries from slinger Kaguthas Mathulan, scored six runs, including a boundary, but was unable to take his side home.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>As the Sri Lankan players celebrated wildly, television cameras captured an agitated Sooryavanshi walking back alongside partner Suryansh Shedge. Moments later, the youngster suddenly charged towards Mathulan, seemingly reacting to something said by the bowler after successfully defending the target.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>Sri Lanka A player Vishen Halambage stepped in to diffuse the situation, but Sooryavanshi appeared to push him. Halambage also attempted to move towards the Indian batter before senior international Niroshan Dickwella intervened and prevented matters from escalating further.<span class=\"id-r-component br\"

br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>The teenager remained visibly frustrated as he headed back to the pavilion.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>Earlier in the evening, Sooryavanshi had also entered a lengthy discussion between captain Tilak Varma and the umpires over the Super Over regulations before head coach Hrishikesh Kanitkar pulled him away.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>What does the ICC Code of Conduct say?<br \/><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"33\"\/>The incident could potentially fall under Article 2.12 of the ICC Code of Conduct, which deals with &#8220;inappropriate physical contact with a Player, Player Support Personnel, Umpire, Match Referee or any other person during an International Match.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"35\"\/>According to the regulations, players can be found guilty if they deliberately, recklessly or negligently make physical contact by walking, running into or shouldering another player or official.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"38\"\/>The ICC assesses several factors while determining the seriousness of the offence, including:<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"40\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component \" data-pos=\"41\">\n<ul>\n<li>(i) the context of the particular situation, including, without limitation, whether the contact was deliberate (i.e. intentional), reckless, negligent, and\/or avoidable<\/li>\n<li>(ii) the force of the contact<\/li>\n<li>(iii) any resulting injury to the person with whom contact was made<\/li>\n<li>(iv) the person with whom contact was made<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><h2>What punishment could Sooryavanshi face?<br \/><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"44\"\/>Article 2.12 is generally classified as a Level 1 offence, although the severity of the incident ultimately determines the punishment.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"46\"\/>Possible sanctions include:<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"48\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component \" data-pos=\"49\">\n<ul>\n<li>A fine of up to 50 per cent of the player&#8217;s match fee.<\/li>\n<li> One or two demerit points on the player&#8217;s disciplinary record.<\/li>\n<li> An official reprimand or warning in less serious cases.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p> <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"51\"\/>Accumulating four demerit points over a 24-month period can lead to suspension.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"53\"\/>As of now, it remains unclear whether match referee Pradeep Jeyapragash will issue formal sanctions or choose to let the matter pass with a warning.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"55\"\/>While emotions ran high after India&#8217;s heartbreaking loss, the spotlight has now shifted from the Super Over drama to whether one of Indian cricket&#8217;s most exciting young talents will face disciplinary consequences for his actions.<span class=\"id-r-component br\"
