Injured England bowler Topley fined for smashing chair

Topley eventually left the field because of the injury and missed the second match of the five-game series.

As he walked up the steps of the pavilion at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown on Saturday, Topley picked up a chair and smashed it on the staircase handrail.

The governing International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Wednesday that Topley had breached the code of conduct article relating to "abuse of cricket equipment or clothing, ground equipment or fixtures and fittings".

In addition to the fine, Topley also incurred one demerit point. Four or more demerit points within a 24-month period are converted into suspension points and a player is banned under the ICC's code of conduct.

England lead the five-match series 2-0, with the third T20 scheduled for Thursday in Gros Islet in Saint Lucia.
