India lost early wickets while chasing a mammoth 444-run target and were eventually bowled out on just 234 runs. It was a tough loss for the Indian team and now they are slapped with hefty fines by International Cricket Council (ICC) after the game. ICC has sanctioned significant fines on both India and Australia for maintaining slow over rates during the WTC Final. According to Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, players are also fined 20% of their match fee for every over their team fails to bowl in the allotted time. So, players from both teams will face hefty fines as well. Meanwhile, Indian batter Gill took social media, both Twitter and Instagram, to express his frustration over third umpire Richard Kettleborough's decision to give him out. The Indian opener is now fined 115% of his match fee by ICC. Gill was dismissed by Scott Boland with Cameron Green taking a controversial catch at slip as the Indian opener endured poor outings at WTC final 2023. Boland went on to take two more wickets on Day 5, both in single over, to play a crucial win in Australia's dominant win to clinch the title.
