New Delhi, April 14, 2025 – Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel has been fined ₹12 lakh for maintaining a slow over-rate during their IPL 2025 match against Mumbai Indians. The penalty was imposed as per the IPL Code of Conduct, which mandates strict action against teams failing to complete their overs within the stipulated time.
This is the team’s first over-rate offense of the season, and as per IPL rules, only the captain is fined for the initial breach. Any further violations could lead to steeper fines and potential suspensions, making over-rate management a critical focus for DC moving forward.
