Dinesh Karthik Reprimanded For Breaching IPL Code of Conduct

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) wicket-keeper batter Dinesh Karthik was fined for breaching the Indian Premier League's (IPL) Code of Conduct during his team's Qualifier 2 against Delhi Capitals at Sharjah on Wednesday.

"Karthik admitted to the Level 1 offence 2.2 of the IPL's Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction. For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee's decision is final and binding," read an official statement from IPL.

Kolkata overhauled the 136-run target in 19.5 overs after nearly squandering the solid foundation led down by their openers on a challenging Sharjah pitch.
