Sri Lanka and India fined

Dubai: India and Sri Lanka were fined for bowling their overs too slowly during the tri-series cricket match in Adelaide.

The ICC Match Referee, Jeff Crowe, imposed the fines after India was found to be one over and Sri Lanka two overs short in Tuesday’s match.

According to the ICC Code of Conduct regulations governing over-rate penalties, players are fined five per cent of their match fees for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time with the captain fined double that amount.

Hence, Mahendra Singh Dhoni was fined 10 per cent of his match fee with each of his players receiving five per cent fines, while Mahela Jayawardene was fined 20 per cent of his match fee and each of his players receiving 10 per cent fines. — PTI
