Lucknow Super Giants spinner Digvesh Rathi has been handed a one-match suspension by the Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council for repeated breach of the league’s Code of Conduct. Rathi had already been penalised twice by the IPL for his extravagant celebrations after taking wickets in LSG’s matches. Against Sunrisers Hyderabad, on Monday, Rathi was even involved in a heated altercation with batter Abhishek Sharma, which even prompted the umpires and other players to intervene.
