Match referee Jeff Crowe docked 10% of the match fee of each Sri Lankan player, with Mahela Jayawardene, the captain, giving up 20%. Each player is fined 5% for every over short, while the captain is penalised twice the amount. Sri Lanka cannot appeal the fine as the ICC rules state the match referee's decision.
