e4e0a020\">The legspinner was slapped with one demerit point on Wednesday for the \u201cuse of an audible obscenity during an international match\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1n6q21n-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">The incident occurred in the 37th over of the Proteas\u2019 innings when Zampa used inappropriate language after a misfield and overthrow off his bowling, which was picked up on the stump microphone and broadcast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-178igh4-StyledParagraph e1s06mna1\">Know the news with the 7NEWS app: <a class=\"css-cvgehw-StyledContextualLink e1s06mna0\"

e4e0a020\">Zampa admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Andy Pycroft of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees and no formal hearing was required.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1n6q21n-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">On-field umpires Chris Gaffaney and Sam Nogajski, third umpire Richard Illingworth and fourth official Donovan Koch levelled the charge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1n6q21n-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player\u2019s match fee, and one or two demerit points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1n6q21n-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">When a player reaches four demerit points within a 24-month period it is converted into suspension points, and a player is banned.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1n6q21n-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">Zampa took 1-58 in his maximum 10 overs and made 11 as Mitch Marsh\u2019s men suffered a 98-run loss in the opening ODI at Cazalys Stadium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-1n6q21n-StyledParagraph e4e0a020\">The teams meet again on Friday, August 22 at the Great Barrier Reef Arena, where the visitors will be hoping to wrap up the three-match series, before the third instalment at the same venue on Sunday, August 24.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"css-6fiqrm-StyledLinkWrapper e1y7kr221\"
