ICC fines WI for slow over-rate
West Indies cricket team has been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate during the first One Day International (ODI) against England at Edgbaston, Birmingham on May 29. Match referee Jeff Crowe of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel imposed a five percent fine on each West Indies player's match fee after the team was found to be one over short of the required target by the end of their innings, once time allowances were taken into consideration. This penalty is in accordance with Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which deals with minimum over-rate offences. The ICC regulations mandate that players are fined five percent of their match fee for every over their team fails to bowl within the allotted time. West Indies captain Shai Hope accepted the sanction, and a formal hearing was not required. The charge was brought against the team by the on-field umpires Kumar Dharmasena and Martin Saggers, along with third umpire Adrian Holdstock and fourth umpire Graham Lloyd. The match saw England post a mammoth total of 400 runs for 8 wickets, with outstanding half-centuries from Ben Duckett, Joe Root, Harry Brook, and Jacob Bethell powering the hosts. In response, West Indies struggled against disciplined bowling, getting bowled out for 162 runs. England's Saqib Mahmood and Jamie Overton were the pick of the bowlers, each taking three wickets. England secured a dominant 238-run victory, leaving West Indies with much to reflect on as they prepare for the second ODI. The next match is scheduled to take place on Sunday, where the West Indies will aim to bounce back and level the series.

Pakistan fined for third straight slow over-rate in final New Zealand ODI
Pakistan's national cricket team has been fined for a third consecutive slow over-rate offence during the recently concluded ODI series against New Zealand, compounding the disappointment of a 3-0 series defeat. The latest penalty was handed down following the third and final ODI at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui on April 5, where the Mohammad Rizwan-led side was found to be one over short of the target after time allowances. The players have been docked five percent of their match fees under Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct, which addresses minimum over-rate requirements. The sanction was imposed by match referee Jeff Crowe of the ICC Elite Panel after the over-rate violation was confirmed by on-field umpires Chris Brown and Paul Reiffel, along with third umpire Michael Gough and fourth umpire Wayne Knights. Captain Mohammad Rizwan accepted the charge, avoiding the need for a formal hearing. This marks the third fine for Pakistan in as many matches during the ODI leg of the tour, highlighting ongoing concerns about the team's match discipline. The punishment also comes on the heels of a poor overall performance by the Men in Green, who ended the tour with just one win across eight matches—losing the T20I series 4-1 and suffering a 3-0 whitewash in the ODIs. Pakistan's only victory came in the second T20I, thanks to a brilliant century from Hasan Nawaz. In contrast, the ODI series saw no standout batting performances, as Pakistan failed to mount a serious challenge in any of the three matches. The repeated over-rate infractions raise further questions about the team's on-field management and tactical execution as they prepare for upcoming international commitments.
