Faf du Plessis fined
Bangalore has been fined due to the slow overrate. The Bangalore team could not complete the entire over in the stipulated time and that is why its captain's pocket has become loose. IPL issued a statement saying that Bangalore captain Faf du Plessis has been fined Rs 12 lakh for slow over rate. It has been told in the statement that this is the first crime of the team.
Avesh Khan reprimanded
At the same time, Lucknow player Avesh Khan, who won this match, has also been reprimanded. Avesh Khan was on strike on the last ball of the last over of the match. Harshal Patel's ball was fired by Avesh but Dinesh Karthik made a mistake in catching the ball and Avesh Khan-Ravi Bishnoi took the run and gave the team victory. After this, Avesh threw his helmet on the ground in happiness. Due to this, he has been reprimanded by the Governing Council of IPL.
