Shubman Gill fined Rs 12 Lakh for IPL Code of Conduct breach

Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill was found guilty of breaching the code of conduct in the match against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Tuesday. His side maintained a slow over rate during the match and consequently, he was fined Rs 12 Lakh.

IPL in an official statement said, “Shubman Gill, the Gujarat Titans captain, has been fined after his team maintained a slow over-rate during their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 match against Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai on March 26. As it was his team’s first offence of the season under the IPL’s Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, Gill was fined ₹12 lakh.”

Gill, this season, took charge of the team as the former captain of Gujarat Titans (GT), Hardik Pandya was traded to the Mumbai Indians (MI). Gill’s side won their first match against the Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians (MI). However, they couldn’t defeat the defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their second match.

Former India bowler S Sreesanth believes the change in the captaincy of the Gujarat Titans (GT) could work in GT’s favour as he said that GT bowlers now will get more freedom to set their fields and execute plans. He added on to say that Hardik was an influential captain.
