    England have been docked two world championship points and fined 10 per cent of their match fees for a slow over rate in the third test cricket win against India at Lord's


    The hosts went 2-1 up in the five-match series with a 22-run triumph, but were found two overs short of target in a match where the Dukes ball went out of shape several times and needed replacing.

    England slipped from second to third in the standings behind Sri Lanka after the deduction.

    Australia lead after sweeping the West Indies 3-nil in the new cycle.
