Clause 12.7 of the IPL Playing Conditions deal with over rates. As per the clause, a team has to complete 14.11 overs an hour – “the 20th over should finish within 90 minutes (being 85 minutes of playing time plus 5 minutes of time-out) of the start of the innings.”
If a team is guilty of violating these stipulations, they lose the extra fielder outside the 30-yard circle. For a first offence, the captain is fined INR 12 lakh. For the second, the fine is doubled, and the other team members are penalised INR 6 lakh or 25 percent of their match fee, whichever is less.
In case of a third offence by a side in the same season, the captain is fined INR 30 lakh and handed a one-match ban. Besides the captain, the rest of the players are fined INR 12 lakh or 50 per cent of their match fees (whichever is less). These penalties will remain the same for each subsequent offence of slow over rates.
If a captain tries to escape a ban by handing over the leadership duties, the sanctions will still be applicable unless the BCCI is notified in writing about a formal change in captaincy.
