Bangladesh T20I team have been fined 20% of their match fee for having a slow over-rate against hosts West Indies in the second match of the three-T20I series in Dominica last Sunday.
Bangladesh had conceded a 35-run defeat in the game.
Richie Richardson of the ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees imposed the sanction after Bangladesh were ruled to be one over short of the target following time allowances taken into consideration.
In accordance with Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to minimum over-rate offences, players are fined 20% of their match fee for every over their side fail to bowl in the allotted time.
Bangladesh T20I captain Mahmudullah pleaded guilty to the offence and accepted the proposed sanction, so there was no need for a formal hearing.
On-field umpires Leslie Reifer Junior and Nigel Duguid, third umpire Gregory Brathwaite and fourth umpire Patrick Gustard leveled the charge.
Bangladesh are 1-0 down in the series after the first game was washed out due to rain and wet outfield.
The visitors will take on the Windies in the third and final game of the series at Guyana Thursday.
