I have done nothing wrong - Broad
Cricket, 11:01, December 19, 2009 ,
England's Stuart Broad doesn't expect to face disciplinary action after questioning umpires during the first Test against South Africa.
The all-rounder was unhappy with South Africa's delayed referral during day three at Centurion Park on Friday which resulted in him being given out lbw, more than half a minute after initially being ruled not out by umpire Aleem Dar.
Broad expressed his frustration to the match referee Roshan Mahanama, but denied that he accused the hosts of cheating and he is not expecting any repercussions.
Broad told the Daily Mail: "I did not see any signal from the South Africa management and as far as I'm aware nobody else in our dressing room did.
"I was merely saying to the umpires that the amount of time the whole process took was wrong and would provide an opportunity for the system to be manipulated. There was no suggestion that I was querying the decision. Replays showed that I was absolutely dead in front. It was just the time it took to get there."
Broad also played down a later meeting with Mahanama alongside coach Andy Flower.
He added: "It was completely calm and civilised and the referee was very understanding.
"He said the whole process was trial and error and that hopefully any teething problems would be sorted out.
"There was no suggestion from the referee that I am facing any disciplinary action and I don't see any reason why there should be. I wasn't rude and I haven't done anything wrong."
