Raipur. Royal Challengers Bangalore all-rounder Tim David has been fined 30 per cent of his match fee and given two demerit points for breaching Level 1 of the IPL’s code of conduct for players and team officials.

Tim was found to have breached Article 2.6 of the IPL Code of Conduct, which relates to “using any gesture that is obscene, offensive or insulting.” Tim admitted his crime and accepted the punishment given by match referee Amit Sharma.
