In a significant development, the BCCI imposed heavy sanctions on Gujarat Titans' head coach Ashish Nehra following the tense clash against Mumbai Indians. Last night, GT secured an emphatic victory over MI, defeating the home team by three wickets in the rain-affected match. 

GT Head Coach Ashish Nehra Gets Penalised

After the game concluded, the BCCI found Ashish Nehra guilty of violating a major rule in the IPL 2025. Notably, Nehra expressed his frustration and had an animated chat with the match officials during the game. 

This didn't go well for the former cricketer, as the governing body found him guilty of breaching article 2.2 of IPL code of conduct which relates to the behaviour that is contrary to the spirit of the game. 

As a result, Nehra was fined 25 per cent of his match fees, while being issued one demerit point for his actions. He accepted his mistake, so, there was no need for a formal hearing. 

"Ashish Nehra, Head Coach, Gujarat Titans, has been fined 25 per cent of his match fees and has also accumulated one demerit point for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct," the IPL released in its official statement.
"He admitted to the Level 1 offence under Article 2.20 - which pertains to the conduct that is contrary to the spirit of the game - and accepted the match referee's sanction," it added. 

GT's Nerve-Wrecking Win Over MI

Meanwhile, riding on a superb collective team effort, GT managed a thrilling win over MI at Wankhede Stadium last night. Batting first, MI posted a respectable score of 155 runs, which the Titans chased with three wickets remaining in a dramatic final-over finish.
