Sept 14 : Pakistan were deducted 11 points in the World Test Championship and their players docked 50 per cent of their match fees due to a slow over-rate during last week’s test against England in Birmingham, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Monday.
The visitors were 11 overs short of their target as England won the match by eight wickets to sweep the series 3-0, the ICC said in a statement.
The deduction leaves Pakistan rooted to the bottom of the standings with five points in nine matches.
Australia, who have won eight of their 10 tests in the current cycle, lead the table with defending champions South Africa second.
