West Indies coach Stuart Law has been fined 25% of his match fee for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct during the last day’s play in the second Test against Pakistan at Windsor Park in Dominica.

Law was found to have been in violation of Article 2.1.5, which relates to “showing dissent at an umpire’s decision during an international match”.

Law’s incident concerned his displeasure with Shane Dowrich’s dismissal.

Bruce Oxenford, the on-field umpire, gave the wicketkeeper-batsman out – caught at short leg – for 2 in the 44th over of West Indies’ chase of 304, despite no clear evidence of an inside edge.

Richard Kettleborough, the third umpire, then reviewed it and stuck with the on-field out call.

The 56 year old later visited Kettleborough’s room and questioned his decision while also making an inappropriate comment.

Since Law admitted to the offence and accepted the sanction imposed by Chris Broad, the match referee, there was no need for a formal hearing.

In addition to the fine, Law was also handed a demerit point. The demerit points which came into existence on September 22, 2016, will remain with a player for a period of 24 months.

If Law reaches four or more demerit points within the stipulated period of next two years, it would translate into at least two suspension points and a ban.

As per ICC rules, two suspension points would result in a ban from one Test or two One-Day Internationals or two T20 Internationals.
