Mumbai/Bhubaneswar: Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant has been fined 100 percent of his match-fee for breaching the TATA Indian Premier League’s (IPL) Code of Conduct during his team’s match against Rajasthan Royals at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.

“Mr Pant admitted to the Level 2 offence under Article 2.7 of the IPL Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction,” said the IPL in a statement.

Shardul Thakur from Delhi Capitals has also been fined 50 percent of his match-fee for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during the game.

“Mr Thakur admitted to the Level 2 offence under Article 2.8 of the IPL Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction,” said the IPL.

Pravin Amre, Assistant Coach, Delhi Capitals has been fined 100 percent of his match-fee for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during the game and will also face a one-match ban for the offence.

“Mr Amre admitted to the Level 2 offence under Article 2.2 of the IPL Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction,” the IPL said.

A clinical bowling performance — after Jos Buttler blasted a 65-ball 116 — helped Rajasthan Royals defend a score of 222/2 against Delhi capitals to register a 15-run victory in Match 34 of the IPL 2022, at the Wankhede Stadium here on Friday.

Prasidh Krishna finished with 3/22 while R Ashwin ended with 2/32 as Royals weathered some anxious moments as they defended their big total to register their fifth win of the season and move to the top of the points table with 10 points, overtaking Gujarat Titans and Royal Challengers Bangalore on higher net run rate.
