Hyderabad: Australia has been fined 10 per cent of their match fee for maintaining a slow over-rate against India in the second Women’s One Day International in New Chandigarh on Tuesday.

G.S.Lakshmi of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees imposed the sanction as Australia were ruled to be two overs short of the target after time allowances were taken into consideration.

Australia captain Alyssa Healy pled guilty to the offence and accepted the proposed sanction, so there was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Vrinda Rathi and Janani Narayanan, third umpire Lauren Agenbag and fourth umpire Gayathri Venugopalan leveled the charge.
