Why? That's not dissent.
Whitfield did not get a 50 when he asked the umpire to explain why Coniglio was penalised. It's not dissent for players to indicate deliberate out of bounds or out on the full, claim a touched ball, suggest that a player has cribbed on the mark, or to ask for an explanation. It's dissent to repeatedly gesticulate and shout at the umpire when the call doesn't go your way.
