Misbah Banned For Being Two Overs Short Of Target

[Iconoclast]

Was gonna miss the second test anyways because of death of his father.

 

Second minor offence but still seems to be a bit harsh.

 

Pakistan will miss his captaincy and leadership.

 

While the Pakistan captain was fined 40% of his match fee, the rest of the team was fined 20% after the side was ruled to have been two overs short of its target of 103 overs after time allowances were taken into consideration. Misbah was previously found guilty of a minor over-rate offence during the Oval Test against England in August; this was his second minor over-rate offence in the same format in a period of 12 months, and as per the rules two offences in 12 months equate to fines and a suspension from the immediately subsequent match in the same format.

Pakistan should throw a tantrum like the South Africans.
