Sreesanth, 2 more RR players arrested for spot fixing in IPL - Firstpost

Three players from the Rajasthan Royals and three bookies have been booked by the Delhi Police on charges of spot fixing in the Indian Premier League.

Fast bowler and former India player S Sreesanth, batsman Ankit Chavan and all rounder Ajit Chandilia were the three Rajasthan Royals players arrested, reported PTI.

The police has also arrested three bookies in Delhi and are on the lookout for two more, the agency reported.

Sreesanth and the two other players were nabbed in Mumbai and are being brought to Delhi, the channel added.

There were no details available on whether the three players had fixed particular matches or if they were only in touch with the bookies.

It has long ceased to be about cricket. It is all about money now. Everybody loves money. I recall how the Australians lamented at the loss of cricketing tradition thanks to this mixing up of players from different countries, and also the new T20 format. I guess it depends who sacrifices what for money.

And make a stash

I will have to look those things up. I still think cricket should be preserved in the Test Format.

The main bookies were from saudi i.e. Daud ibrahim. Catch that bastard and we will see an end to a lot of things. Even though daud is outside. He has his long arm in cricket,bollywood,real estate etc and what not.

I am amazed at the gall of Rajiv Shukla and Srinivasan by acting coy and smug.

They had been informed by the Delhi Police long back and all they did was turn the Nelson's Eye and now are acting over-smart!

Read this tweet, as reported in the newspaper:



A TOWEL CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE:
ONE MADE RANDHIR KAPOOR'S CAREER
AND ANOTHER FINISHED SREESANTH'S!
