Clause 12.7 of the IPL Conditions are with respect to over rates. As per the clause, a team should complete an innings in 90 minutes. The time includes two strategic time-out of two and a half minutes each, and each time a review is taken upstairs, it does not get included in the stipulated 90 mins.

If a team is guilty of violating the act, they will lose an extra fielder outside the 30-yard circle. There are also three offences. For the first, the skipper of the side is fined Rs 12 lakh.
