Rajasthan Royals’ stand-in captain Riyan Parag has been fined Rs 12 lakhs by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for maintaining a slow over-rate during their match against Chennai Super Kings at Barsapara Stadium on Sunday. The fine came after Rajasthan secured their first win of IPL 2025 in three attempts, following losses to Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders.
The penalty was imposed under Article 2.22 of the IPL’s Code of Conduct, which deals with minimum over-rate offences. As this was the team’s first offence of the season, Parag received a monetary penalty.

Parag became the second captain this season to face such a fine, following Mumbai Indians’ Hardik Pandya, who was penalised similarly after their match against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad on Saturday, where MI suffered a 36-run defeat.
The BCCI has implemented new regulations for the current season regarding over-rate violations. Captains will no longer face match bans but will receive demerit points based on the severity of the offence. This change follows Hardik’s one-match ban in 2024, which caused him to miss Mumbai’s season opener against Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2025.
In the match against CSK, Rajasthan Royals secured a crucial victory. Sri Lankan spinner Wanindu Hasaranga played a pivotal role, claiming 4 wickets for 35 runs and exposing Chennai’s weakness against spin bowling.
