The International Cricket Council (ICC) has penalized both Pakistan and Bangladesh for slow over rates during the historic first Test match in Rawalpindi, where Bangladesh secured a landmark 10-wicket victory. Pakistan was found six overs short, leading to a deduction of six World Test Championship (WTC) points and a 30% fine on their match fee, while Bangladesh lost three points and was fined 15% for being three overs short. This defeat places Pakistan eighth in the WTC standings and Bangladesh seventh. Both teams accepted the sanctions without a formal hearing, as captains Shan Masood and Najmul Hossain Shanto pleaded guilty. Additionally, Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan received a 10% fine and a demerit point for throwing the ball in frustration during the match. The second Test is scheduled to take place in Rawalpindi on Friday.
