Pakistan captain Misbah-ul Haq has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee for showing dissent at an umpire's decision during his side’s four-wicket defeat to New Zealand on Friday.
New Zealand fast bowler Adam Milne has also been reprimanded for using obscene language during the one-day international in Sharjah.
Misbah expressed his displeasure in the 37th over after TV umpire Joel Wilson upheld on-field umpire Richard Illingworth's decision to give him caught behind off paceman Matt Henry.
An ICC statement read: "Misbah was fined 15 per cent of his match fee for... showing dissent at an umpire's decision during an international match."
Misbah, who made 47 in Pakistan’s total of 252 all out, also hurt his hamstring while fielding and is now doubtful for the third match in the series, which is also in Sharjah on Sunday.
Milne received an official reprimand for violating the game's code of conduct after he was clearly observed using an inappropriate word after dismissing Pakistan's Shahid Afridi in the 41st over.
"After the match, both players admitted the offences and accepted the sanctions proposed by Sri Lankan match referee Roshan Mahanama," the ICC said.
Under the ICC's code of conduct all Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand and a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player's match fee.
Pakistan won the first game of the series in Dubai with the final two games to be played in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday and Friday.
New Zealand pace bowler Kyle Mills will take no further part in the series as he is to return home after injuring his groin in training.
