Dwayne Bravo fined over umpire comments
LEEDS - West Indies' Dwayne Bravo has been fined by the International Cricket Council after criticising officials for the dismissal of Chris Gayle in the second one-day international against England.
Opening batsman Gayle had made 53 in just 51 balls, when he was given out lbw to England off-spinner Graeme Swann by New Zealand umpire Tony Hill at The Oval on Tuesday.
Gayle called for a review but third umpire Kumar Dharmasena of Sri Lanka, after several minutes' study, decided there was not enough evidence to overturn Hill's original verdict
It seemed a close call either way as to whether the ball had hit the bat or pad first but the upshot was that Gayle's exit sparked a collapse that saw the West Indies decline from 63 without loss to 79 for four. Bravo, who top-scored for the tourists with 77, said the umpires had made a mistake following an eight-wicket defeat that gave England an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
