India have been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate in their six-wicket World Cup final win over Sri Lanka, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced Sunday.

India, who fielded first after losing the toss at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday, were found to have been just one over short of the target for bowling its overs by match referee Jeff Crowe, the former New Zealand captain, at the end of the fixture when time allowances were taken into consideration.
