RAWALPINDI – Pakistan and Bangladesh were fined for maintaining a slow over rate in the Rawalpindi Test.
Both teams were found guilty of slow over rates, with Pakistan bowling six overs fewer and Bangladesh bowling three overs slower than required. As a result, Pakistan lost six points in the World Test Championship, while Bangladesh lost three points.
Pakistan’s team was fined 30% of their match fee, while Bangladesh was fined 15%.
Despite the loss, Pakistan will remain in eighth place on the World Test Championship points table, and Bangladesh, despite their victory, has dropped from sixth to seventh place.
Bangladeshi all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan received one demerit point and was fined 10% of his match fee for breaching ICC regulations by throwing a ball at Mohammad Rizwan during his bowling.
