Huge penalty imposed on Pakistan cricket team in India

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has imposed a fine on the national team in the World Cup for a slow over rate.

According to the details, in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023, during the 26th match held in India, the International Cricket Council imposed a 20% match fee penalty on the national players for a slow over rate. Pakistani captain Babar Azam has accepted the fine.

In a recent match against South Africa played the previous day, a fine was imposed for a slow over rate, and the Pakistani team was lagging behind by 4 overs in the prescribed overs.

South Africa managed to defeat Pakistan by just one wicket after an intense battle.

It's worth noting that according to ICC rules, a 5% match fee penalty is levied for every over that is bowled too slowly.
