India opener Shubman Gill was fined 15 per cent of his match fee for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct after the cricketer criticised the umpire over his dismissal.

The incident occurred after the fourth day's play when Gill criticised the umpiring decision for his dismissal in the second innings of the match on social media. Television umpire Richard Kettleborough adjudged that a catch by Cameron Green to remove Gill had been taken cleanly. Gill took to social media later in the day to make a post that appeared to question the decision.

The 23 year old will also face a sanction from the ICC for breaching 'article 2.7 which relates to public criticism or inappropriate comment in relation to an incident occurring in an international match'.

"India's Shubman Gill will also face a sanction for appearing to criticise the decision to give him out on the fourth day of the Test, breaching article 2.7 which relates to public criticism or inappropriate comment in relation to an incident occurring in an international match. The young opener has been fined 15 percent of his match fee," an ICC statement read.

"Television umpire Richard Kettleborough adjudged that a catch by Cameron Green to remove Gill had been taken cleanly. Gill took to social media later in the day to make a post that appeared to question the decision," the statement added.

India went on to lose the World Test Championship final over Australia comprehensively by 204 runs at The Oval.
