After losing to Pakistan by 14 runs on Monday, England cricketers Jofra Archer and Jason Roy had to face the wrath ICC for breaching the conduct. Opener Jason Roy and pacer Jofra archer have been slapped with a fine of 15 per cent of their match fees as and one demerit point has been added to their disciplinary records.


As stated by the ICC in their media release, Roy was found using obscenities in Monday's game.

The incident occurred during the 14th over of Pakistan's innings on Monday when Roy used an audible obscenity after misfielding which was clearly heard by the umpires.

Archer was fined for showing dissent at an umpire's decision. The incident occurred in the 27th over of Pakistan's innings, when Archer showed obvious dissent following a wide delivery.

Meanwhile, Pakistan captain Sarafraz Ahmed has also been fined for minor over rate.

Sarfaraz was fined 20 per cent of his match fee while his teammates were fined 10 per cent each following the over rate breach after Pakistan was ruled to be one over short of its target after time allowances were taken into consideration.

All three players admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by match referee Jeff Crowe of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.

The charges were levelled by on-field umpires Marais Erasmus and S Ravi, third umpire Ruchira Palliyaguruge and fourth official Chris Gaffney.

Pakistan defeated England by 14 runs to clinch their first victory in the ongoing World Cup.
