Stuart Broad fined for using "inappropriate language" at Faf du Plessis

England bowler Stuart Broad has been fined 15% of his match fee for using "inappropriate language" during the fourth Test against South Africa.

On Monday, Broad, 33, was involved in an altercation with Proteas captain Faf du Plessis during day four.

Du Plessis was hit on the pads by a throw from Sam Curran and an agitated exchange with Broad followed.

Broad has also been given one demerit point which takes his total to two in a 24-month period.

If a player receives four or more demerit points within a 24-month period they will receive a suspension.

In the exchange with Broad, Du Plessis was also involved in a collision with Jos Buttler as the England wicketkeeper stood between the pair but he has not been punished.
