    "Times New Roman";color:#424242">"Mr. Karthik accepted the sentence for
    the Level 1 infraction under Article 2.3 of the IPL Code of Conduct. The Match
    Referee's judgement is final and binding for Level 1 Code of Conduct
    violations, according to the statement.

    "Times New Roman";color:#424242">The official statement did not specify why
    Karthik was reprimanded, although it was most likely due to the right-reaction
    hander's to failing to make contact with an Avesh Khan ball in the RCB innings'
    last over.

    the ramp shot but failed to connect. He was furious.

    Karthik stayed unbeaten on 37 off 23 balls, and he and
    centurion Rajat Patidar (112*) put on a stunning 92-run fifth-wicket stand off
    just 41 balls to take RCB to 207/4. The sum was too much for LSG to handle, and
    RCB triumphed by 14 runs.





























    In the Qualifier 2 match in Ahmedabad on Friday, the 2016
    finalists will meet Rajasthan Royals for a position in the finals. On Sunday,
    the victor of the match will face Gujarat Titans for the IPL 2022 crown.
