IPL 2026 Scraps Captain Suspension Rule for Slow Over-Rates

BCCI / IPL

March 2026

The IPL announced ahead of the 2026 season that it had scrapped the rule mandating a one-match suspension for captains after three slow over-rate offences in a season. Captains and players will now face fines and in-game field-restriction penalties only — a significant softening of the disciplinary regime that has produced multiple over-rate fines without any captain suspensions across IPL 2026.

With the IPL's previous one-match suspension rule scrapped pre-season, neither fine carried a ban; PBKS's other players were each fined 6 lakh or 25 per cent of match fee per offence.
