England spinner Graeme Swann has been fined 10 per cent of his match fee after being found guilty of breaching the ICC’s Code of Conduct during the ICC Cricket World Cup match against Bangladesh in Chittagong on Friday.

 

Swann was charged with a Level 1 offence under article 2.1.4 of the code which relates to, 'Using language or a gesture that is obscene, offensive or insulting during an international match.'

 

Swann pleaded guilty to the charge and as such, under the provisions of the code, the matter was determined by Jeff Crowe of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees and so there was no requirement for a full hearing.

 

The charge was brought by on-field umpires Rod Tucker and Darryl Harper and third umpire Aleem Dar, all from the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Umpires.
