England penalised for slow over rate in India T20I
Nottingham, June 29 (UNI) England were ruled two overs short of the target after time allowances were taken into consideration.
England had elected to field first in the T20I played in Nottingham, and ended up conceding 210/5 courtesy a brilliant maiden century from Smriti Mandhana.
In accordance with Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to minimum over-rate offences, players are fined five per cent of
their match fee for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time.
On-field umpires Jacqueline Williams and James Middlebrook, third umpire Sue Redfern, and
fourth umpire Anna Harris leveled the charge, which was accepted by England captain
Nat Sciver-Brunt.
Sciver-Brunt also accepted the proposed sanctions which meant that there was no need for a
formal hearing, according to an ICC report.
Helen Pack of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees imposed the sanction.
England lost the first T20I by 97 runs, which was their heaviest-ever loss in the format. The 2nd
T20I between the two sides will take place on July 1 in Bristol.

"Cannot Be One-Hundred Wonder": Sanjay Manjrekar On India Star Ahead Of 2nd England Test
India lost the first Test of their ongoing five-match series to England, but it had a lot of positives to take from the game; top-order batting was one of them. While the lower-order batters failed miserably during the series opener at Headingley, Leeds, the top-order just had a contrasting outing. The likes of Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, and Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a century each, while Rishabh Pant smashed tons in both innings during the game. Former India player Sanjay Manjrekar believes that Pant will carry on his superb form to the second Test against England. He added that Rahul too has no choice but to "carry his form through the series". He shared his opinions during the 'Game Plan' show on Star Sports. "I think he (Rishabh Pant) will (carry his form to the second game) because it seems like he enjoys batting in Test cricket. Any batter who gets two hundreds in a Test match, it takes a lot out of you mentally, not so much physically, getting a hundred in the first innings, and 48 hours later, you have the same kind of reserve to get another hundred. So that is a hallmark of an exceptional player," the former India batter said. "Rishabh Pant enjoys Test matches. He has not got enough runs. So he is hungry. I see Pant carrying his form, but there is another senior batter in the team, who now has got no choice but to carry his form right through the series. Indian cricket needs him badly, and KL Rahul cannot be a one-hundred wonder or a one-Test-match performer," he added. India will aim to level the series when they take on England in the second match at Edgbaston, Birmingham, starting July 2. It will be a tough test for the Indian cricket team as its ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah is expected to miss the game as a part of workload management. The right-arm fast bowler was the lone impressive performer during India's bowling in the first Test. To add to India's trouble, England have added right-arm pacer Jofra Archer to their squad. If he plays the Birmingham Test, the Indian batters will have to face an even better England bowling attack.

"Rishabh Pant Sahab Used His Smarts": Rohit Sharma Revisits T20 World Cup 2024 Final Memories
Team India seemed to be edging closer to another heartbreak in an ICC event as South Africa dominated the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 final with the bat. With 30 runs needed from 30 balls and some of the finest Proteas batters in the middle, South Africa had the game under control until a tactical masterstroke by Rishabh Pant to halt the game broke their momentum. In a candid chat ahead of the first anniversary of India's T20 World Cup 2024 triumph, Rohit revealed how Pant's clever idea gave India an opportunity to turn the tables. "When South Africa needed 30 runs off 30 balls, just before that, there was a small break. Pant used his intelligence to pause the game - he had a knee injury, so he had his knee taped, which helped slow down the game - because the game was fast-paced, and at that moment, all a batter wants is the ball to be bowled quickly. But we had to break the rhythm. As I was setting the field and talking to bowlers, suddenly I saw Pant fallen on the ground. The physiotherapist had arrived and was taping his knee. Klassen was waiting for the match to start again. I am not saying it's the only reason, but it could be one of them - Pant Sahab used his smarts and things worked out in our favour," he had said. Rohit also said that he thought Pant had actually hurt himself as he went down, thinking it was probably the car crash injuries that were affecting his condition in the middle. "See, Hardik has come to bowl there. So, we were discussing with Hardik what to do. I didn't know what had happened before. I genuinely thought that something had happened to him. The accident he had, I thought he was just trying to. But actually, it was just to stop the game a little bit. The momentum was with them. So, it was very important to break that. So, I think we went back to that. Eventually, Hardik dismissed Klaasen," the India ODI captain explained on Star Sports.
