This fine marked the first such instance for the franchise during the ongoing season. The penalty was imposed following the match against Chennai Super Kings.
Pant’s leadership role necessitates adherence to the strict guidelines, ensuring timely completion of overs, a cornerstone of IPL’s regulations.
