Jos Buttler was run out for a duck after a mix-up with fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal during Rajasthan Royals’ facile win over Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL on Thursday, and while it is yet unclear what action of the England batter was found in breach of the IPL Code Conduct, he has been fined 10 percent of his match fee for it.
Buttler has admitted to Level 1 Offence under Article 2.2 of the IPL Code of Conduct, and it is speculated that one of his actions following the run-out incident led to the breach.
Buttler had to almost sacrifice his wicket for his opening partner Jaiswal who went on to slam IPL’s fastest half-century ever (off 13 balls) on his way to an unbeaten 98 as Rajasthan chased down KKR’s 149/8 to win by nine wickets.

“Rajasthan Royals’ Jos Buttler has been fined 10 Percent of his match fee for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during Match 56 of the TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 between Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata on May 11,” the IPL Governing Council informed in a statement past midnight.
For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee’s decision is final and binding.
Level 1 offences under the IPL Code of Conduct usually relate to abuse of cricket equipment or clothing or ground fixtures and fittings; showing dissent at an umpire’s decision by action or verbal abuse; using language that is obscene, offensive or insulting and/or the making of an obscene gesture and engaging in excessive appealing or point or gesture towards the pavilion/dressing room sheds in an aggressive manner, or to behave aggressively or derisively towards either batter, upon the dismissal of a batter.

Earlier in the game, Jaiswal’s blitz and skipper Sanju Samson’s unbeaten 48 helped RR reach the target in just 13.1 overs after their bowlers, led by Yuzvendra Chahal’s 4 for 25, did brilliantly to restrict KKR after the hosts were asked to bat first at the Eden Gardens.
