Jason Roy, one of the architects of Kolkata Knight Riders' much-needed win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League game on Wednesday night, has been fined 10 percent of his match fee for a code-of-conduct breach
The English opener, who fired a 29-ball 56 to propel KKR to 200/5 against Royal Challengers Bangalore, has admitted to the breach.
The RCB could only make 179/8 in response.
"Roy admitted to the Level 1 offence under Article 2.2 of the IPL Code of Conduct," IPL Media stated.
For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee's decision is final and binding, it added.
The win was KKR's third in eight matches and pushed them up to No. 7 in the 10-team table with six points. RCB are at No . 5 with four wins in eight matches.
