"As it was his team's first offence of the season under the IPL's Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, Rahane was fined Rs 12 lakh," the IPL said in a statement.

Rajasthan, after opting to bowl, were able to complete the first innings only at 21:58 local time after starting at 20:00. Chennai managed to squeeze in a tight win — by eight runs — after the Jaipur-based side fell short in Chase of 175.
