Ray Price, the Worcestershire left-arm spinner, has received a reprimand under the ECB’s discipline code following an incident during Worcestershire’s second eleven Championship match against MCC Young Cricketers between April 24 and 26.

Price was reported by umpires John Holder and Roger Tolchard for a level one breach of the code, which relates to abuse of cricket ground, equipment or fixtures/fittings.

The penalty remains on Price’s record for a period of two years. Any further level one breach during that period will result in an automatic three penalty points.
