This time, the focus has shifted to captain <strong>Riyan Parag<\/strong>, after broadcast footage from Tuesday night\u2019s match against <strong>Punjab Kings<\/strong> in <strong>New Chandigarh<\/strong> appeared to show him vaping inside the team\u2019s dressing room.<\/p>\n<p>The incident was captured during the <strong>16th over<\/strong> of the second innings, with Rajasthan chasing a target of <strong>223<\/strong>. As the television feed turned toward the dressing area for reaction shots, Parag was seen taking a puff from what looked like an electronic cigarette. <strong>Yashasvi Jaiswal<\/strong> and <strong>Dhruv Jurel<\/strong> were also visible nearby in the same area of the frame.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the Royals ultimately sealed a <strong>six-wicket<\/strong> win, the outcome was quickly eclipsed by online and on-ground debate about their captain\u2019s off-field behaviour. The discussion intensified because the broadcast delivered clear visuals to a large audience in a match setting watched in real time across the league.<\/p>\n<p>In India, the <strong>Prohibition of Electronic Cigarettes Act, 2019<\/strong> outlaws the manufacture, sale, distribution, storage, and advertising of vapes. The law also provides for penalties that may include fines, and in some situations, imprisonment of up to <strong>six months<\/strong> for offences connected to storage. While prosecutions over private, personal use are uncommon, the public nature of a live IPL broadcast has made the episode harder to ignore.<\/p>\n<p>It is understood that <strong>BCCI<\/strong> officials are reviewing the footage. There are indications that the matter may be handled under the <strong>IPL code of conduct<\/strong>. A team-linked source noted, \u201cThere is no specific punishment listed in the IPL code of conduct. The BCCI will be seeking legal guidance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Royals sources said there has been no direct communication from the BCCI so far. They added that coach <strong>Kumar Sangakkara<\/strong> spoke with <strong>Riyan<\/strong> about the incident after the match.<\/p>\n<p>For continued updates on IPL Live Score, IPL news, the IPL Schedule, and the standings in the race for the IPL Orange Cap and IPL Purple Cap, stay tuned to match coverage throughout the tournament.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JAIPUR:
