In a significant development during the IPL 2025 season, Rishabh Pant, the captain of the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), has been penalised ₹30 lakh for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct. This fine was imposed after LSG maintained a slow over-rate during their match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on Tuesday at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow .
The Incident: Slow Over-Rate in LSG vs RCB Match
The match between LSG and RCB was marred by time delays, leading to the BCCI's intervention. As per the IPL's Code of Conduct, teams are required to bowl their overs within a stipulated time frame. Failure to do so results in penalties, with the captain facing a fine of ₹30 lakh for the third offence of the season.
In this instance, LSG's slow over-rate led to the imposition of the fine on Captain Rishabh Pant. Additionally, each member of the playing XI, including the Impact Player, was fined ₹12 lakh for the same offence .
Previous Incidents: A Pattern of Over-Rate Offences
This is not the first time Rishabh Pant has faced penalties for slow over-rates. Earlier in the 2024 season, while leading the Delhi Capitals, Pant was fined ₹24 lakh for a second over-rate offence against Kolkata Knight Riders . Subsequently, in a match against Rajasthan Royals, he was fined ₹30 lakh and suspended for one match due to a third offence .
The Importance of Adhering to Over-Rate Regulations
Maintaining a timely over-rate is crucial for the smooth conduct of matches and upholding the integrity of the sport. The BCCI's stringent measures aim to ensure that teams adhere to the prescribed timelines, promoting fairness and discipline in the league.
