AUS vs ENG 4th Ashes Test: England, Australia Docked Points; Fined For Slow Overrate During Men's Ashes 2023
England and Australia were on Wednesday docked crucial ICC World Test Championship points and hit with fines for maintaining a slow over-rate during the the recently-concluded men's Ashes 2023. Under the revised regulations, they were fined five percent of their match fee and one WTC point for every over short. According to ICC, Australia have been docked 10 WTC points from the recently-concluded Ashes series for a slow over-rate in the fourth Test at Old Trafford, while England lost 19 points combined for falling behind in four of the five Tests.
Notably, teams earn 12 points for a Test win, four points for a draw and no points for a loss in the WTC. Typically, a team needs to bowl 90 overs in a day.
