NEW DELHI, June 28: Australian skipper Ricky Ponting has been fined 30 percent of his match fee for dissent during Friday’s second One-day International win against the West Indies.

An International Cricket Council (ICC) statement said Ponting appeared to make a comment to the umpire after he had turned down a caught-behind appeal against Patrick Browne.
