Tendulkar fined $40,000 for slow over rate

Mumbai Indians' skipper Sachin Tendulkar was on Wednesday fined US $40,000 for maintaining a slow over-rate in the IPL match against Kings XI Punjab, on Tuesday.

Other members of the team were fined US $10,000.

The fines were imposed after the match referee assessed that the Mumbai Indians were one over behind the required rate after allowances were taken into consideration.
