KINGSTON, Jamaica (CMC) — West Indies have been slapped with a fine for slow over-rate, adding to the pain of their seven-wicket defeat in the opening Test against Pakistan Tuesday.

 International Cricket Council match referee, Chris Broad, ruled that the Caribbean side was one over short of their target during the contest at Sabina Park.Each player was fined 10 per cent of his match fee while captain Jason Holder attracted a 20 per cent fine, as per the ICC Code of Conduct.The ICC statement said Holder pleaded guilty to the charge and accepted the sanction, ruling out the need for a formal hearing.“If West Indies commits another minor over-rate breach in a Test within 12 months of this offence with Holder as captain, it will be deemed a second offence by Holder and he will face a suspension,” the ICC said.West Indies will seek to level the three-match series when they take on Pakistan in the second Test starting on Sunday at Kensington Oval in Barbados.The final Test is set for Windsor Park in Dominica from May 10-14.
