IPL 2024: Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant to be banned from 1 IPL game? Likely in this scenario…
₹24 lakh for his second over rate offence in the ongoing 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) season. Pant maintained a slow-over rate in the game against Kolkata Knight Riders at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam on April 3, the second instance when Pant was fined for a slow over rate. Apart from Pant, other team members were also fined 25 per cent of their match fees, or ₹6 lakh, whichever is less.
As per the statement issued by the IPL, “As it was his team's second offence of the season under the IPL's Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, Pant was fined INR 24 lakh. The rest of the members of the Playing XI, including the Impact Player, were each individually fined either INR 6 lakh each or 25 per cent of their respective match fees, whichever is lesser." On 1 April, Pant was fined ₹12 lakh as the DC captain was found guilty of breaching the IPL Code of Conduct on over rate. On March 31, DC registered their first win in the tournament against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Visakhapatnam, but Pant was slapped with a penalty for maintaining a slow over rate.
If the slow over rate offence is repeated again, the captain will be then fined ₹30 lakh and will also face a one-match ban. Apart from him, the rest of the team members will be fined 50 percent of their match fees or ₹12 lakh, whichever is lesser. Penalties for slow over rates will stay consistent for each additional offence.
