Gill 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 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.

Both India and Australia cricket teams have also been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate in the WTC Final at the Oval in London.
“India have been fined 100 per cent of their match fee and Australia 80 per cent of their match fee for maintaining slow over-rates in the ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 Final.”
