Pakistan was punished by a big loss to India in the Women’s World Cup. Pakistan beat India 1-0 in Women’s T20 World Cup in Birmingham, England. Pakistan has been fined in this incident. They are penalized for not completing the over within the stipulated time.
Pakistan bowled one over less than the allotted time. According to the International Cricket Council’s Code of Conduct, a team is fined five per cent of the match fee for each over if they fail to complete the innings within the stipulated time. Hence Pakistan’s match fee has been reduced by five percent. International Cricket Council match referee Trudy Anderson announced the penalty. Pakistan captain Fatima Sana accepted the punishment without a formal hearing.
