Kiwi fast bowler Kyle Jamieson has been hit with a warning and a demerit point for his send-off of 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi in the Indian Premier League.
The incident happened in the second over of the first innings of the match between Jamieson's Delhi Capitals and Sooryavanshi's Rajasthan Royals on Saturday.
Jamieson was visibly pumped up after bowling the youngster with a yorker, roaring and clapping in his face.
The 31-year-old came back well to bag the second wicket of the match after having a half-volley driven dismissively down the ground by Sooryavanshi the previous ball.
An IPL release said the quick was found to be close to the opener "in an aggressive manner, which could have provoked an aggressive reaction from the batter".
This was a breach of article 2.5 of the IPL's Code of Conduct.
Jamieson admitted to the offence and subsequent sanction imposed by match referee Rajeev Seth.
The Capitals won by seven wickets, chasing down the Royals' score of 225 with five balls to spare.
Jamieson finished with figures of 1-48.
