Cameron Bancroft and Tom Curran have been reprimanded by the ECB's Cricket Discipline Commission for acts of dissent during recent County Championship matches.

Australian batsman Bancroft was reported by umpires Michael Gough and Jeff Evans during Gloucestershire's County Championship Division Two ten-wicket defeat against Essex on April 10-13 for a level one breach of the code (showing dissent at an umpire's decision by word or action).

The penalty for these offences is a reprimand which will remain on their records for two years.
