The man handing down the sanction? Broad's father.
Broad admitted to the offence that occurred on Saturday during Pakistan's second innings in the team's three-wicket loss to England in Manchester.
He accepted the punishment proposed by his father, Chris Broad, who is on the governing body's elite panel of match referees.
It was the younger Broad's third offence in a 24-month period, taking his cumulative demerit points to three.
His previous breaches were in January during the fourth Test against South Africa at the Wanderers and in August 2018 in the third Test against India at Trent Bridge.
