Our Sports Reporter

GUWAHATI: Stand-in captain of Rajasthan Royals Riyan Parag was fined Rs 12 lakh for his team’s slow over rate during the match against Chennai Super Kings on Sunday. This fine was imposed as Rajasthan Royals took longer than their stipulated time to finish their bowling innings. It was Rajasthan Royals’ first offence of the season under Article 2.22 of the IPL Code of Conduct, which deals with minimum over-rate violations.

Notably, this was the second such incident in the ongoing IPL season, as Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya was also fined Rs 12 lakh for a similar offence during their match against Gujarat Titans.
