The Pakistan team, which lost the 3-match ODI series to New Zealand 0-3, has created a unique record as well. The Mohammad Rizwan-led side has been fined for slow over rates in all three matches of the series against New Zealand.

The Mohammad Rizwan-led Pakistan side have been fined five percent of their match fee owing to slow over-rate from their third ODI against New Zealand in Mount Maunganui.

Jeff Crowe of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees imposed the fine after Pakistan was found to be one over short of the required target after time allowances were taken into account.

According to Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which addresses minimum over-rate offenses, players are penalized 5% of their match fee for each over in which their team fails to bowl inside the specified time.

Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan's captain, pleaded guilty after being charged by on-field umpires Chris Brown and Paul Reiffel, as well as third umpire Michael Gough and fourth umpire Wayne Knights.

This is Pakistan's third successive fine for slow over-rate in the series against New Zealand. After losing the five-match T20I series 4-1, Pakistan finished the ODI series without a win as New Zealand controlled all three games.
