Pune: Indian Premier League (IPL) side Sunrisers Hyderabad have been fined Rs 12 lakh after they maintained a slow over rate during their match against Rajasthan Royals at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium here on Tuesday night.

As it was the team's first offence of the season under the IPL's Code of Conduct relating to minimum over rate offences, SRH skipper Kane Williamson was docked Rs 12 lakhs.

Earlier, dominating knocks by Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson, Devdutt Padikkal and Shimron Hetmyer, followed by clinical bowling by Yuzvendra Chahal (3/22) and Prasidh Krishna (2/16) led Rajasthan Royals to a thumping 61-run victory against Sunrisers Hyderabad in their IPL match on Tuesday.
