Rajasthan Royals skipper Ajinkya Rahane has been fined for maintaining a slow over-rate during an Indian Premier League (IPL) match against Chennai Super Kings. Rahane has been fined Rs 12 lakh as it was Rajasthan's first offence of the season under the IPL's Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, an IPL statement said.


Rajasthan lost their third match by eight runs against Chennai, who registered their third consecutive victory in this season on Sunday. The Rahane-led side will host Royal Challengers Bangalore on April 2 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.

Rajasthan all-rounder Ben Stokes has said that his team can't afford to lose another game after suffering three consecutive defeats in the IPL. Stokes said there was no point in looking back and focus on the upcoming games because if they lose the next two, bouncing back could be beyond Royals' reach.
