In addition to the three Demerit Points he had previously accrued—one against the Punjab Kings on April 1, 2025, and two against the Mumbai Indians on April 4, 2025—he has now accrued two more since this was his third Level 1 offence under Article 2.5 this season.
Digvesh will now be punished for LSG’s upcoming game against Gujarat Titans on May 22, 2025, in Ahmedabad, since he has now reached five Demerit points this season, which entails a one-game suspension.
The Match Referee’s ruling is definitive and enforceable for Level 1 violations of the Code of Conduct.
