England’s energy-sapping win over India at Lord’s this week has come at a cost after they were docked two World Test Championship points for a slow over rate.

In addition to the sanction that sees Ben Stokes’ team drop from a win percentage of 66.67 to 61.11, and therefore relinquish outright second place to Sri Lanka, the players have been fined £1500 each, one-tenth of their match fees.
