Match referee Chris Broad imposed the fines after India were two overs slower than the required rate in the 50-over match.

Pakistan won the first one-dayer by seven runs under the Duckworth Lewis scoring system after replying with 311 for seven off 47 overs, to India's 328, when the umpires stopped play due to worsening light.

The second game in the five-match series is in Rawalpindi on Saturday.
