Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], March 27 (HBTV): Following a defeat against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Gujarat Titans (GT) skipper Shubman Gill was fined as his team maintained a slow over rate during the first innings of the match on Tuesday.  



The fortress at Chepauk stood untouched as the CSK registered a comprehensive 63-run win over the Gujarat Titans in the ongoing IPL 2024 at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. 



"Shubman Gill, the Gujarat Titans captain, has been fined after his team maintained a slow over-rate during their Indian Premier League  2024 match against Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai on March 26," the IPL said in an official statement. 



Coming to Gill, his form has dipped after taking over the captaincy of the Gujarat franchise as he has not been able to score runs that consistently. The right-hand opener scored 31 runs in the first match against five-time champion Mumbai Indians and was able to score just 8 runs against the defending champions CSK.  



The 24-year-old had a memorable run in the IPL 2023 after he won the Orange Cap. In 17 matches, he scored 890 runs at an average of 59.33 and a strike rate of 157.80 with 3 hundreds and 4 fifties to his name. He also scored 129 runs off 60 balls against MI in the Qualifier 2.
