Delhi Capitals coach Ricky Ponting was left visibly fuming after the Rajasthan Royals fielded a fifth overseas player during Thursday evening’s Indian Premier League match in Jaipur.

The Royals, who named three overseas players in the starting XI, employed their impact sub during the innings break at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, swapping out South Africa’s Nandre Burger for Shimron Hetmyer.

According to Article 1.2.6 of IPL’s playing conditions, teams are not allowed to have more than four overseas players on the field of play at any time during a match. Rishabh Pant-led Delhi won the toss and chose to field first and maintained a stranglehold over the game until the second half of the Royals’ innings.

Ashwin scored 29 off 19 balls and took the team to 90 before he was dismissed in the 14th over by India teammate Axar Patel.
