"Jason Roy was found to have breached Article 2.3... which relates to using audible obscenities in an international match," the ICC said in a statement. "The incident occurred during the 14th over of Pakistan's innings when Roy used an audible obscenity after misfielding which was clearly heard by the umpires." Archer, meanwhile, was sanctioned for showing "obvious dissent" after bowling a wide delivery in the 27th over in what turned out to be a forgettable match for the fast bowler. Four demerit points in a two-year period are converted into suspension points and two points lead to a ban for one test or two ODIs or two Twenty20 matches. Pakistan play Sri Lanka next on Friday in Bristol while England play Bangladesh in Cardiff a day later.
