West Indies incur World Test Championship point penalty for slow over rate

espn.com

West Indies received a two-point penalty in the World Test Championship and a ten percent match fee fine for a slow over-rate in their second Test against Sri Lanka. The team was found to be two overs short of the required pace during the match. Captain Roston Chase accepted the penalty, avoiding a formal hearing. This deduction places West Indies ninth in the WTC standings with 18 points after a drawn second Test secured a 1-0 series victory.
