On Friday, April 4, LSG beat MI by 12 runs to register their 2nd win of the tournament. However, on April 5, Rishabh Pant and LSG spinner Digvesh Singh dealt a heavy blow as IPL slapped the LSG captain with a fine of 12 lakhs.

Meanwhile, Digvesh Singh has landed himself in hot waters as he was slapped with 50% of his match fees for an aggressive send-off to Naman Dhir. Notably, Digvesh, who won the player of the match award for his performance, has been under the scanner on a couple of occasions in this IPL as he first gave a send-off to Priyansh Arya with a notebook checklist celebration that didn't go well with the fans.

Notably, Digvesh was fined 25% of his match fees in the LSG vs PBKS match. Now, with his second offence, Digvesh has also been hit with two demerit points. 

How Much Will Digvesh Singh Pay As Fine?
