IPL 2025: LSG's Digvesh Rathi banned for one match after fierce faceoff with Abhishek Sharma in SRH match

Lucknow/IBNS: Lucknow Super Giants bowler Digvesh Rathi has been fined 50 per cent of his match fees for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during his team’s match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow on Monday.

This was his third Level 1 offence under Article 2.5 this season and hence, he has accumulated two demerit points, in addition to Three Demerit Points he had accumulated earlier - One Demerit Point against Punjab Kings on April 1, 2025 and Two Demerit Points against Mumbai Indians on April 4, 2025.

As he now has five demerit points this season - which result in a one-game suspension - Digvesh will now be suspended for LSG’s next game - against Gujarat Titans on May 22, 2025 in Ahmedabad.

Abhishek Sharma, Sunrisers Hyderabad all-rounder, has been fined 25 per cent of his match fees for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct in the same match on Monday.

This was his first level 1 offence under Article 2.6 this season and hence, he has accumulated one demerit point.
