    M.S. Dhoni, the Indian captain, has been banned for two ODIs because India maintained a slow over-rate during the second match against Sri Lanka in Nagpur.

    The ban is effective immediately, which means Dhoni will be unavailable for the games in Cuttack and Kolkata, returning only for the final ODI in Delhi.
    Dhoni had been informed of the ban verbally, BCCI vice president Rajiv Shukla confirmed, and the board was awaiting written notice from the ICC.

    The second ODI ended about 45 minutes after the scheduled finish time because of frequent discussions between the Indian players during the closing stages of Sri Lanka’s chase.

    Doesn't matter/ Today it was the indian team. Tomorrow it might be SL. They took way too much time to set fields, discuss etc. It should be punished. Whether it was too harsh it another story. If ODIs need to last alongside, it should be very dynamic, and for that people holding up games for their benifit isn't going to work.
