Stuart Broad fined for foul language in first Pakistan Test
England’s veteran pacer Stuart Broad has been fined by his father Chris Broad for using foul language during the first Test against Pakistan.
The incident took place during Pakistan’s second innings in the series opener which led to Chris—who was serving as the match referee—slapping a fine of £2,000 on his son Stuart for using inappropriate language after dismissing Yasir Shah, as per English publication The Guardian.
The right-arm pacer, on his official Twitter account on Tuesday, confirmed the development by claiming that his father will not be on his Christmas card and present list.
