Mumbai Indians (MI) captain Hardik Pandya has been fined Rs 12 lakh for maintaining a slow over-rate during the IPL match against Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the PCA New International Cricket Stadium on Thursday.
KKR came close to dethroning RR from the summit of the table but fell short in a high-scoring chase thriller following Jos Buttler's blitzkrieg (107*).
Ahead of the fixture against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Rajasthan Royals (RR) leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal is on the verge of achieving 200 wickets in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Pathirana, who missed CSK's last two matches due to a hamstring niggle, has eight wickets to his name after conceding in three matches he played so far this season.
With this win, CSK is at number three with four wins and two losses, giving them eight points. MI is at eighth spot, with two wins and four losses, giving them four points.
