Pakistan fined for slow over rate despite winning the ODI Tri-Series final vs Sri Lanka

Following their three-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the ODI Tri-Series final, Pakistan faced disciplinary action for failing to maintain the required pace of play. Officials determined the team was one over behind the target after accounting for necessary time deductions.

As a result, the squad received a fine equivalent to five percent of their individual match fees. Captain Shaheen Shah Afridi admitted to the infraction, bypassing the need for a formal hearing.

The penalty was issued by match referee Jeff Crowe, with the charge brought forward by umpires Ahsan Raza, Wayne Knights, Sharfuddoula Ibne Shahid, and Rashid Riaz.
