The IPL governing council has suspended five players named by a sting
operation alleging corruption until an inquiry into the accusations is
conducted.
According to IPL chairman Rajiv Shukla the players are : TP Sudhindra
(Deccan Chargers), Mohnish Mishra (Pune Warriors), Shalabh Srivastava
(Kings XI Punjab), Amit Yadav (Kings XI Punjab) and Abhinav Bali.
India TV, a television channel, showed footage of a player bowling a
big no-ball in a limited-overs match and played a recording of a phone
conversation that it said was of a current IPL player negotiating a
fee for bowling a no-ball. It also had at least three players on
camera allegedly seeking more lucrative deals - including extra money
that would have violated their IPL contracts - with other league
franchises through an undercover reporter posing as a sports agent.
