Team India has suffered another setback after this defeat. The ICC has fined the Indian team led by Rohit Sharma for slow over-rate. The ICC has imposed a fine of 80 percent of the match fee.

International Cricket Council (ICC) panel match referee Ranjan Madugalle imposed this fine. India had reduced four overs in the stipulated time. According to Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel relating to slow over rate, players are fined 20 percent of their match fees per over for not completing the over in the stipulated time.

According to the ICC statement, Indian captain Rohit Sharma has accepted this fine and hence there was no need for further hearing in this matter.
