Delhi Capitals’ Rasikh Salam Fined for IPL Code of Conduct Breach in Clash Against Gujarat Titans

The Gujarat Titans were devastated to lose their match against the Delhi Capitals on Wednesday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium by a margin of four runs. The Titans led the chase for the majority of the game, which made DC bowler Rasikh Salam less effective. This caused the game to become heated. The DC pacer received criticism for his boisterous celebration.

With figures of 3/44 from four overs, Rasikh was his team’s standout performer. During this stretch, he removed B Sai Sudarshan, Shahrukh Khan, and R Sai Kishore.

According to IPL Code of Conduct Article 2.5, Dar committed a Level 1 offense. He acknowledged the offense and consented to the Match Referee’s punishment. The decision made by the Match Referee for Level 1 violations of the Code of Conduct is final and enforceable, according to an IPL statement.

“Language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a another player” are covered under Article 2.5.

As indicated by the IPL set of rules, Article 2.5 covers any words, deeds, or motions that a player utilizes against an excused hitter that could impel a forceful reaction from the hitter, whether or not a response happens, or that could be deciphered as belittling or trashing the excused player, whether or not the player feels dehumanized or derided themselves,

Dar took the match referee’s punishment after acknowledging his wrongdoing. The decision made by the Match Referee is final and enforceable for Level 1 violations of the Code of Conduct.
