IPL 2026: Jamieson penalised for aggressive celebration vs Sooryavanshi

Delhi Capitals pacer Kyle Jamieson has been sanctioned by the BCCI for an aggressive celebration after dismissing 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi during their IPL 2026 match against Rajasthan Royals.

The incident occurred after Jamieson bowled a yorker to dismiss Sooryavanshi, who had initially hit a boundary. The New Zealand international celebrated emphatically in front of the young batsman but was handed a warning and a single demerit point for breaching Article 2.5 of the IPL Code of Conduct regarding gestures that could provoke a reaction. djcc.club

Despite the disciplinary action, Jamieson admitted post-match that he was fearful of facing Sooryavanshi and praised the teenager's talent, describing the dismissal as a "cool moment."
