Fair play contenders in IPL 2022
This year's IPL is in great form and has shown many unexpected and brilliant turns
Sanju Samson and Rajasthan Royal's on top of fair playWhile Kohli is not in great form, Dhoni amazed his fans in their recent match against Mumbai Indians. His recent role in defeating Mumbai Indians has shown that no matter how old he gets, he will always keep his fan's heads high. While the grace and elegance with which Mumbai Indians accepted defeat make them a fitting contender for the Fair Play Award of this year's edition.
The Fair Play Award is an award awarded every year to the team that has shown the best and the most sporting behaviour on the field. Despite holding one of the lowest positions on the score tally, Mumbai Indians may get the fair play award this season for their sporting attitude on the field. On the other hand, Delhi Capitals hold the bottom position and have not earned many points for their behaviour on the field either.
Rajasthan Royals and CSK hold the top positions, and besides holding one of the top positions, Rajasthan Royals has been impressive in their on-field behaviour. While RR is fit for the fair play award, Delhi Capital's reaction to RR in their last match may significantly strike them off the list of contenders for the prize. Delhi Capitals did not react well to the disturbance on the field. Vikrant Gupta, the managing editor at Sports Tak, while commenting on the behaviour of Rishab Pant on-field, tweeted, "Shocking night. The umpiring has been worse than even gully-mohalla standard, but Rishabh Pant had no business suggesting his batsmen stage a walkout #DCvRR."
Rishabh Pant and their coach, Praveen Amre, got agitated and misbehaved with Rovman Powell and the umpire on the field. Rishab Pant asked Powell to leave the field. While Delhi Capitals now may be in the last position for the award, Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals are running strong when competing for the fair play.
