That one fight triggered a huge riot..? Action taken by the ICC..!?

ICC has taken action against Asif ali and Fareed Ahmad who fought on the ground in the Asia Cup series. In the Super 4 round of the Asia Cup series, pakistan and afghanistan teams played a series of tests. In this very exciting match, pakistan won the thriller by hitting 2 sixes in the last over. Chasing a target of 129 runs, the pakistan team stumbled by losing 9 wickets for 118 runs. Asif Ali, who has been playing well for pakistan, teased Fareed Ahmad by hitting a six in the 19th over of the match. Fareed took the wicket of ali in the very next ball in response.
As the wicket fell, Fareed ahmed leaped to celebrate and the fierce Asif ali picked up the bat and went to beat Fareed. At one point his hands touched Fareed's cheek. Fareed also responded to this and there was a great commotion in the stadium. As a result, the fans also fought in the stadium.
In this case, the ICC has taken action against those two players. It is considered an offense if a player or umpire conducts a fight on the field. Accordingly, the ICC has ordered both players to pay a penalty of 25% of the match fee.
But this decision has left the fans dissatisfied. Because it was pakistan player Asif ali who got involved in the scandal first. It was he who went to hit the bowler who was celebrating his wicket. But the fans are displeased that it is not right to punish the Afghan player along with him.
