Cricket: Daryl Foster retires from Kent

Brian McMillan, the South African all-rounder, has been fined pounds 450 for manhandling an abusive Indian spectator at the close of play on Saturday, the third day of South Africa's drawn Test with India in Johannesburg. "He was abusing me in front of my wife and the wife of Indian opener Woorkeri Raman. After being asked to stop he continued with the verbal abuse so I pushed him against the combi. But I did not punch him," McMillan said .
