Michael Clarke set to lose part of match fee after being charged over Jimmy Anderson sledge Michael Clarke has been fined 20 per cent of his match fee over his sledging of England's James Anderson, some of which was caught on camera. AUSTRALIA captain Michael Clarke will be charged by the International Cricket Council over his sledging of England tailender Jimmy Anderson. Clarke has been hit with a level one code of conduct break and will be fined 20 per cent of his match fee. In the closing stages of the first Test at the Gabba, Clarke engaged in a heated exchange with Anderson. Stump microphones detected Clarke telling Anderson Australia's fast bowlers would "break his f---ing arm." The exchange attracted the attention of on-field umpires Kumar Dharmasena and Aleem Dar. It appears it has also caught the eye of match referee Jeff Crowe in light of the move to fine Clarke. It is understood Clarke has been found to breach Article 2.1.4 of the ICC's Code of Conduct, relating to "using language or a gesture that is obscene, offensive or insulting during an International Match."
