April 3rd, 2011 - 6:42 pm ICT by IANSMumbai, April 3 (IANS) World Cup champions India have been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate during their final against Sri Lanka at the Wankhede Stadium here Saturday.
Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni was fined 20 percent of his match fee while the players were docked 10 percent.
