LSG's Digvesh Rathi faces one-match ban after heated SRH clash - his 3rd Code of Conduct breach this season (5 demerit points total).
SRH's Abhishek Sharma fined 25% match fee + 1 demerit point for the altercation. Match referee's decision is final - no appeals allowed.
Rathi (14 wickets this season) misses crucial GT clash. Big blow for LSG's playoff hopes as their top bowler sits out.
LSG may play Shahbaz Ahmed or M Siddharth as left-arm spin options against GT's strong batting lineup (Gill, Buttler, Sudharsan).
Players reconciled post-match. Abhishek (Player of Match) confirmed: "Spoke to him after the game - all good now."
Rathi's ₹30L auction steal now costs LSG dearly. Bishnoi's poor form (26 runs in 1 over vs SRH) adds to bowling crisis.
With playoffs nearing, can LSG overcome this setback? GT clash on May 22 becomes must-win without their star bowler!
