Both Pakistan and Bangladesh were fined for a slow over rate during the recent Rawalpindi Test match. Pakistan received a 30% fine on their match fee, while Bangladesh was fined 15%.
These penalties highlight the need to follow over rate rules in Test cricket to ensure the game proceeds at a proper pace. Despite the fine, Pakistan remains in eighth place in the World Test Championship standings, reflecting their struggles in the longer format of the game as they work to improve their performance.
