Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli has been fined Rs 12 lakh after his team maintained a slow over-rate during their Indian Premier League match against Kings XI Punjab here.<\/p>\n
RCB were thrashed by 97 runs in the match on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
“As it was his team’s first offence of the season under the IPL’s Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, Mr. Kohli was fined Rs 12 lakh,” the IPL said in a release.<\/p>\n
The Indian batting mainstay had a forgettable outing at the Dubai International Stadium.<\/p>\n
While he dropped two catches of centurion KL Rahul, which proved to be costly, Kohli also could not contribute anything substantial with the willow.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, his KXIP counterpart Rahul shattered a few record on the way to a 69-ball 132 — the highest scored by an Indian in an IPL game.<\/p>\n
Kohli dropped Rahul twice — once in the 17th over at deep square-leg when he was batting on 83 and then again in the 18th over when he was on 89.<\/p>\n
The lapses helped KXIP score an imposing 206 for 3, with Rahul doing the bulk of scoring.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
