Captain Kevin Pietersen has been fined 10 percent of his match fee and his England team mates docked five percent for their slow over-rate in the first test against India in Chennai.

An International Cricket Council (ICC) statement on Wednesday said England were one over shy of their target when they lost by six wickets earlier this month.

India took the series 1-0 when this week's second and final test in Mohali ended in a draw.
