West Indies cricketers Jayden Seales and Kevin Sinclair were fined on Wednesday for breaching the International Cricket Council's (ICC) code of conduct during their second Test loss to Bangladesh.
Fast bowler Seales was penalised 25 percent of his match fee for "making aggressive gestures" towards the Bangladesh team after taking a wicket. Additionally, he was handed one demerit point for the offense.
All-rounder Sinclair, who was serving as a substitute fielder, was fined 15 percent of his match fee for sledging.
According to the ICC, Sinclair "ignored warnings" from the umpires and continued to use "aggressive language" towards the Bangladesh players.
Despite Seales' impressive bowling performance, claiming 4-5 in 15.5 overs during Bangladesh's first innings in Jamaica, the visitors secured a 101-run victory to level the two-match series.
