Dubai: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has imposed fines on India and the West Indies for exceeding the required over-rate during their third and final ODI match in New Chandigarh. India was fined 20% of their match fee, while the West Indies received a 10% fine for their slow over-rate. This occurred after considering time allowances during the match on Saturday.
According to the ICC's Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, players face a fine of 5% of their match fee for every over they fail to bowl within the allotted time. Both captains agreed to the penalties and did not require a formal hearing. The West Indies led the three-match series 2-0 before facing India, and ended their tour with a record-breaking win, thanks to Shai Hope's unbeaten 162 not out.
This was the highest score by a West Indies man in a successful ODI run-chase, surpassing Brian Lara's 1993 record of 153. The two teams will now shift focus to the upcoming five-match T20I series, which starts on Tuesday.
