CONDUCT
There are 4 levels of offence - Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4 which the umpires will use when confronted with an act of unacceptable behaviour
Either umpire can call Dead ball if he considers that the conduct of a player is unacceptable
He shall report the incident to his colleague and they will decide whether misconduct has occurred and which Level to apply
The appropriate sanctions will then be applied
If the offending player is a batter, the batting captain will be summoned on to the field by the umpires because in this case, the batters at the wicket cannot act for the captain
