Pakistan penalised by ICC for slow over-rate in tri-series final win against Sri Lanka ...Middle East

News by : (cricketaddictor) -

Pakistan chased down a target of 326 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on October 31, winning by three wickets with nine balls to spare. The victory secured their second ODI tri-series title, nearly two decades after their first triumph in 2008. They suffered a defeat in the final against New Zealand in 2025.

The offence falls under Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which deals with minimum over-rate violations. Under the rule, players are fined five per cent of their match fee for every over their team fails to bowl within the allotted time.

Sri Lanka posted 325/8 after winning the toss and batting first at the Gaddafi Stadium. Kamindu Mendis top-scored with 131 off 128 balls, while Pavan Rathnayake scored 77. The pair added 146 runs for the third wicket to put Sri Lanka in a strong position.

The left-hander struck 127 off 99 deliveries, hitting 11 fours and six sixes to keep the hosts in the chase. His innings laid the foundation for the pursuit, although Salman Agha's dismissal for 17 left the lower order with work to do.

The victory also ended their wait for another tri-series title. Their previous triumph came in 2008, when they defeated India in the Kitply Cup final in Bangladesh. The latest win also provided redemption after their defeat to New Zealand in the 2025 home tri-series final.

India looked in trouble during that final before Mohammad Kaif and Yuvraj Singh produced a memorable recovery. Yuvraj scored 69, while Kaif remained unbeaten on 87 to guide India to a famous victory.
