LONDON, Nov 16: England fast bowler Matthew Hoggard was fined 20 percent of his match fee for breaching the ICC code of conduct during the 22-run loss to Pakistan in the first Test that ended in Multan on Wednesday.

Hoggard was reported for excessive appealing by umpires Simon Taufel and Billy Bowden as he celebrated the dismissal of Pakistan opening batsman Salman Butt on Tuesday, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said in a statement.
