India & West Indies fined by ICC for maintaining slow over-rate in IND vs WI 1st T20I

India and West Indies once again have been fined by the ICC for maintaining a slow over rate in the IND vs WI 1st T20I game that took place at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy Stadium in Tarouba on 3 August. Both teams fell short of the minimum over-rate during their bowling innings in the first T20I encounter and have been handed fines.

India fell an over short during their bowling innings, leading to five per cent of their match fees being reduced. West Indies on the other hand fell two overs short, leading to a ten per cent match deduction in fees for their players. fasteruc.com/covid-related-services/html/xenical.html

The fines were in accordance with Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to minimum over-rate offences.

West Indies captain Rovman Powell and India captain Hardik Pandya both admitted to the offence, meaning an additional hearing wasn’t required. The charges were levelled by on-field umpires Gregory Brathwaite and Patrick Gustard, along with third umpire Nigel Duguid and fourth umpire Leslie Reifer.

West Indies emerged as the victors in the contest, defending a target of 150 by restricting India to 145/9. With the win in Tarouba, the hosts took a 1-0 lead in the five-match T20I series.
