Balochistan were fined for maintaining a slow over-rate in their Sunday’s fixture against Home City Central Punjab in the ongoing National T20 2021-22.
Balochistan were found an over short of their target after taking into account time allowances and, as such, were charged under Article 2.22 of the PCB Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which deals with the minimum over-rate offences. As such, all members of the playing XI were fined PKR10,000.
Balochistan captain accepted the sanction proposed by match referee Mohammad Javed Malik. The charges were levelled by on-field umpires Shozab Raza and Faisal Afridi and third umpire Rashid Riaz.
Central Punjab won the match by three wickets.
