COLOMBO (Reuters) - India paceman Ishant Sharma and Sri Lanka's Dinesh Chandimal have been given one-match bans after admitting charges of misconduct during the third test between the countries, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Tuesday.

Two other Sri Lanka players, Lahiru Thirimanne and Dhammika Prasad, were fined half their match fees for their roles in the two separate incidents during the test, which India won by 117 runs to secure the series win.
