S Africa fined for slow over-rate

---

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, May 7 (AFP): South Africa have been fined for a slow over-rate during their 13-run win against New Zealand in the World Twenty20 Super Eights, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said Thursday.
Match referee Alan Hurst imposed the fines after South Africa were ruled to be one over short of their target at the end of the match, at the Kensington Oval here on Thursday, when time allowances were taken into consideration.
Teams are allowed an hour and 20 minutes to bowl their full 20 overs in a Twenty20 international although officials will allow some leeway for stoppages caused by incidents such as balls being hit way into the crowd and players who require on-field treatment for injuries.
