Kolkata Knight Riders captain Shreyas Iyer faced a ₹12 lakh fine from BCCI after his team's slow over rate in an IPL 2024 match against Rajasthan Royals. It was KKR's first offence under the IPL's Code of Conduct, leading to the penalty. Despite a valiant effort, KKR's slow over rate may have contributed to their loss against RR, with Jos Buttler's unbeaten 107 securing the win. Iyer acknowledged the disappointment, emphasizing the need to learn from the experience for future matches. RR's victory strengthens their position atop the IPL table, marking a memorable chase in league history.
