After a spat between Kolkata Knight Rider's captain Ganguly and Rajastha Royals skipper Shane Warne, both the players were fined 10% of their match fee.
Both the players have agreed for paying the penalty.
Match umpire GA Pratap Kumar has been suspended for a match because he listened to Ganguly for checking for the third umpire.
Warne takes on Ganguly!
Ganguly Hits Back at Warne!
They both are not happy with the decision of the IPL, but accepted the decision and ready to pay the fine.
It was said that Ganguly was not available to comment on the decison taken by IPL to penalize 10% match fee. He was in the nets with the rest of the team practicing for the match ahead.
Both the teams have agreed to put the issue aside and focus on the game. The team spokes person said that they have agreed to pay the fine and wanted to forget the incident.
Ganguly was fined for violating the code of conduct by forcing the umpire to ask for third umpire, when he was caught at deep midwicket by Smith. His version of the story was, he did not ask the umpire GA Pratap Kumar to refer third umpire. All he said was, the catch was not cleanly taken.
