Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli has been fined $ 20,000 for his team's slow over-rate during the IPL match against Delhi Daredevils in New Delhi.

"Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli has been fined after the team maintained a slow over rate during Thursday's DLF IPL match against Delhi Daredevils in Delhi," IPL said in a statement.

At the end of the match, Royal Challengers Bangalore were assessed to be two overs behind the required rate after allowances were taken into consideration.
