England have been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate during their 15-run defeat against India in the second ODI of the three-match series at the Barabati Stadium in Cuttack on Thursday.
Andy Pycroft of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees imposed the fine after Eoin Morgan's side were ruled to be one over short of its target when time allowances were taken into consideration.
In accordance with Article 2.5.1 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to minor over-rate offences, players are fined 10 per cent of their match fees for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time, with the captain fined double that amount.
As such, Morgan has been fined 20 per cent of his match fee, while his players have received 10 per cent fine.
After the match, Morgan pleaded guilty to the offence and accepted the proposed sanction, so there was no need for a formal hearing.
The charge was laid by on-field umpires Anil Chaudhary and Ruchira Palliyaguruge, third umpire Kumar Dharmasena and fourth official Nitin Menon.
