Cricket Spot Fixing Scandal & The Bollywood Connection

IPL Cricket spot-fixing scandal & the Bollywood Connection. In case you have not been paying attention to this controversy…

If you have always felt that there was something wrong with the IPL matches, and most of the matches were fixed, you have been proven right!

Delhi Police have arrested Rajasthan Royals cricketers S. Sreesanth, Chandila, Ankeet Chavan and 11 bookies in Delhi, Mumbai and Ahmedabad, exposing the spot fixing scam.

Bollywood’s Involvement

Here are some of the people from Bollywood who are linked to this controversy.

Actor Vindu Dara Singh was arrested on allegations of spot fixing during the IPL matches.

A Bollywood spot boy has been arrested for working as a conduit between bookies and fixers for this season`s IPL matches.

Police are also not ruling out the involvement of other big Bollywood stars and an underworld don based in Dubai in the spot fixing.

Crybaby Bowler

Can you name this cricketer who confessed to spot-fixing (in IPL) when caught red handed but has now decided to plead not guilty? Everybody has seen him crying on television…?

Yes, its Sreesanth who has been caught in the IPL controversy with Rajasthan Royals’ team members Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan for accepting Rs.60 lakh. And it seems, soon after, he spent about Rs 2 lakh on designer clothes and a Smartphone for his girlfriend.

So to all those people who are glued to the idiot box thinking that these guys are really battling it out against easy other, isn’t it time you find some other alternative to stay entertained?
