West Indies batsman Darren Sammy and Ireland bowler John Mooney have been fined 30 per cent of their match fees for violating ICC's Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel. Ireland stunned West Indies by four wickets for a famous ICC World Cup 2015 victory in Nelson (New Zealand) on Monday.
Both offences happened in separate incidents in the first innings when Sammy was heard on television screens using inappropriate words after playing a shot in the 34th over, while in the second instance Mooney swore several times when a fielder dropped a catch in the 45th over.
Both players admitted the offences and accepted the sanction proposed by ICC match referee Chris Broad.
