"We had a hearing with the match referee, Chris Broad, for two counts of excessive appealing and dissent," Saleem Altaf, manager of the Pakistan cricket team, said.

"On the first count, he has been fined 30 per cent of his match fees and on the second, a level two offence, he has been given a one-Test match ban."

Altaf said both instances were during the first half hour of play on Monday.

Pakistan won the Test, Inzamam's 100th, by 168 runs to level the series 1-1.

Altaf said the Pakistan Cricket Board will decide if they want to appeal against the ban.

Pakistan are scheduled to play their next Test in the West Indies in May.
