Kolkata Knight Riders’ captain, Shreyas Iyer, has been penalized for a slow over rate during their recent IPL match against Rajasthan Royals. The fine, totaling Rs 12 Lakh, marks him as the fourth captain, following Shubman Gill, Sanju Samson, and Rishabh Pant, to incur such penalties in the tournament.
This setback compounds KKR’s woes after their loss to Rajasthan Royals, with Jos Buttler’s exceptional batting securing the victory for the visitors. Rajasthan Royals currently lead the standings with 12 points from seven matches, while KKR sits in a close second with 10 points from seven matches.
This isn’t the first instance of a captain receiving a fine in IPL 2024, as Gill, Samson, and Pant have also faced penalties for similar infractions. Another offense of this nature could result in a suspension for the captains.
KKR’s upcoming match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru presents an opportunity for redemption, while Rajasthan Royals will face a tough challenge against Mumbai Indians.
