Your support makes all the difference.Matthew Maynard has been fined an undisclosed amount and issued with a severe reprimand by Glamorgan's cricket committee in the wake of his comments after the Benson and Hedges Cup quarter-final defeat by Warwickshire on Tuesday.
The Glamorgan captain was reported as saying that he was unhappy with the umpiring and claimed his side had been "robbed" of victory. Maynard was adjudged lbw near the end of the game and his displeasure at the decision was evident.
The county's prompt action may bring an end to the matter but the TCCB could still take its own disciplinary action.
