Will Shubman Gill Be Fined: Captain may have to face trouble due to slow over rate in the first Test

News India Live, Digital Desk: Will shubman gill be fined: Shubman Gill, who is seen captaining for the first time as a young player and captain of the Indian cricket team, may be fined for violation of the International Cricket Council (ICC) rules. It is reported that Team India’s over rate has been slow in the first Test match against England, due to which Gill may have to bear the brunt of it.

What do ICC rules say?

According to ICC rules, if the team’s over rate in a Test match is slower than the scheduled time, the captain is fined heavy. This penalty is 5% of the match fees for a shortage of each over, which can be up to a maximum of 50%. This rule is not only to keep time punctual, but is also important to run the game in a certain speed.

Gill’s new role and lesson of rules

This is the first major experience of captaincy for Shubman Gill, especially in Test cricket. In such a situation, if they are fined, it will be an important lesson for them to understand the captaincy responsibilities and rules. The team management and the captain have to pay special attention to that the players do not waste unnecessary time and the match goes at a prescribed pace.

Rohit Sharma, the regular captain of the Indian team, was also fined recently for a slow over rate. This shows that ICC is very strict about this rule and big names are also not spared.

However, there is no official confirmation from the ICC so far, but if the information of sources is proved correct, Gill may have to lose some part of his match fee as a fine. This incident also shows that not only sports skills in cricket, but also the rules and time management are equally important.
