Haris Rauf fined for altercation with England's Will Jacks
Pakistan fast bowler Haris Rauf was fined 20% of his match fee after an on-field argument with England player Will Jacks during a one-run ODI win over England.
The incident happened in the 46th over, when Rauf appealed for a wide and then argued with Jacks, raised his bat and brushed past the umpire.
The ICC said his actions breached its rule on conduct contrary to the spirit of the game, and gave him an official reprimand.

Four demerit points convert into suspension points under ICC rules, and Rauf served a two-ODI ban last year for earlier disciplinary breaches.
If he reaches eight demerit points, his bans will be doubled.
