Subramaniam Badrinath, the captain of Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) team Karaikudi Kaalai charged for slow-over rate for the third time in this season. As a result, the former Indian player will face a one-match ban in the TNPL. Badrinath was charged with the slow-over rate offence during their Eliminator game against Lyca Kovai Kings.

His team was earlier fined for the slow-over rate on two different occasions during the league stages. They were behind the required over-rate in the games played at Tirunelveli against Madurai Super Giant and Dindigul Dragons. S Badrinath received 10% and 20% fines on his match fees respectively in the two games. He was also charged with 10% fine on match fee for committing an offence against Dindigul as he showed dissent at an umpire’s decision.

By repeating third slow-over rate offence of the season, the players of Karaikudi side have been fined 50% of their match fees while Badrinath was fined 100% of his fee along with the one-match ban. Karakudi were knocked out of the TNPL 2017 in the Eliminator match at the hands of Lyca Kovai Kings, who won the game by 4 wickets. However, Badrinath’s one-match ban will be active and will be carried forward to the next season.

The press release from TNPL on Karaikudi Kaalai stated:
