MS Dhoni has been banned for the Adelaide Test after India were found to be two overs short of the required over-rate during the Perth Test. India bowled 76 overs in 362 minutes in the only innings they bowled in at the WACA ground. This is India’s second over-rate offence in the last 12 months. Dhoni had been on notice after India had been found short in the West Indies in June-July last year. The rule regarding the over-rate offences was changed last June wherein the second offence within 12 months began to merit a ban for the captain. Earlier, captains were allowed three offences.
