The IPL press release, however, doesn’t exactly specify the breach.
“Nitish Rana from Kolkata Knight Riders has been reprimanded and fined 10 percent of his match-fee for breaching the IPL’s Code of Conduct during his team’s match against Mumbai Indians at Pune,” the media release stated.
“Rana admitted to the Level 1 offence of the IPL Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction,” it further stated.
In case of Bumrah, there was no financial penalty and only a warning.
“Jasprit Bumrah from Mumbai Indians has been reprimanded for breaching the IPL’ Code of Conduct during his team’s match against Kolkata Knight Riders at Pune. Bumrah admitted to the Level 1 offence of the IPL Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction,” the BCCI stated.
For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the match referee’s decision is final and binding.
