IPL spot-fixing - Lifetime ban on S. Sreesanth [Ban restored update #92]

This thread is an eye opener. Thx Pakistan fans. Bharath dharam aadhar par chaltha hai. The pure.
 
If Balajee and Nehra can then why not he? :farhat

Dude, dont entertain him.

1) He is not an expert
2) People wont be satisfied unless PLAYERS WITH EXACT CALIBER, EXACT BACKGROUND, EXACT AGE, EXACT MATURITY are not caught in EXACT situation.
3) BCCI/India is not out there to please anybody.

The fact that domestic league involved players been handed life bans is a good pointer even for Indian scene, that should be appreciated by people who can understand the implication.
 
Yeah, amir was 17 when he got caught, we want him back .Its pretty easy to influence a kid from a village specially if its coming from an authority figure like the captain of the team.

Yes ofc. A guy from a village absolutely CANNOT have a sinister mindset.
The villages have such simple fellows that you ask them to cut off the branch they are sitting on, 10 out of 10 will do it.


You were not there in the team/meetings to take the call whether aamir was a lalloo who was shepherded by the so called seniors.
It's a 50-50 chance and for a team where fixing has been a constant factor, you can ill afford to keep such people in. The incidents like fixing, swearing on a holy book to bring about a downfall, player hitting his own team mate with a bat, egos, purchi system and vested family interests overshadow national duty, i dont think aamir was of a clean slate.

He was and probably is better than most thundler in IPL
 
Sreesanth has only himself to blame. He was mature enough to refrain from his antics and certainly was not always the victim like he constantly portrayed himself to be.

he is now claiming he is innocent :facepalm:

what is it with these fixers - once they are caught they still can't man up to what they have done
 
The Kerala High Court on Tuesday restored the life ban imposed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s on cricketer S Sreesanth months after lifting it.

The court had lifted the ban in August following an appeal by the pace bowler.

The BCCI had then filed an appeal in the court against the lifting of the ban. The board had stated in the appeal that the decision to lift the ban was contrary to the norms that have been put in place.

Sreesanth had been accused of match-fixing by the Delhi Police during the Indian Premier League in 2013. He was given a clean chit by the Delhi High Court in 2015. However, despite the acquittal, the BCCI had decided to ban the player for life.

I feel punishment for domestic games shouldn't interfere punishment for International games but since they involve international games in it then why don't they include domestic games when an International player is banned for a few ?
 
The BCCI knows that he is a fixer, the court couldn't prove it but he was banned anyway. Fixer is a fixer regardless of how they fool the justice system. Think about Chris Cairns, McCullum testified in the court but Cairns still got away. This isn't gonna work with BCCI.

S Sreesanth calls Kerala HC's verdict to restore life ban the 'worst decision ever'

A miffed S Sreesanth on Tuesday termed the Kerala High Court's verdict to restore the life ban imposed on him by the BCCI the "worst decision ever" and vowed that he would not give up his fight.

In a major setback for the fast bowler, the Kerala High Court on Tuesday decided to restore the life ban imposed on the bowler by the Indian cricket board.

A division bench of the court in Kochi said that it cannot conduct a judicial review of the life ban imposed by the BCCI and therefore upheld the appeal.

The 34-year-old pacer took to social networking site, Twitter to express his disappointment, questioning the BCCI on allowing Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals to come back into the IPL fold after serving two-year suspensions each.

"This is the worst decision ever...special rule for me what about real culprits?What about chennai super kings ? And what about Rajasthan?" Sreesanth wrote on his Twitter handle.

Sreesanth thanked his fans for their support and said that he would continue to fight.

"Thanks a lot for all the support Nd encouragement given so far. I assure u all that I'm not giving up...I will Keep at it...Nd alwys believe

"Anyway all I have is my family and lots of dear ones who still believes in me...I will keep fighting and make sure I don't give up..."

The Kerala High Court had on August 7 lifted the life ban imposed on him by the BCCI in the wake of the 2013 IPL spot- fixing scandal.

Sreesanth further said, "And what about the accused 13 names in Lodha report?? No one wants to know about it?i will keep fighting for my right...God is great."

Speaking to the media, Kerala Cricket Association secretary Jayesh George said the KCA has been supporting Sreesanth.

"We had made arrangements for him to undergo a full fitness test so as to make him match fit. Now with this verdict, we will have to respect it," said George.

The BCCI had filed a counter-affidavit on the issue in the court in response to the plea by Sreesanth, who had challenged the life ban despite a court dropping all charges against the pacer.

How does BCCI know it? The court should always have the last say or else it will send a wrong message
 
I'm so happy. This crooked, heinous human being should never be allowed to play any form of cricket again.

It will send rather send a strong message. No place for fixer in Indian team. You fix and you’re done for regardless how much talented you maybe.
 
Then why did they reverse their decision?

True. One time the court lifts the ban because they cant find proof , another time they re-impose it because BCCI explains it is against the norms. Quite sure sreesanth will pursue it further. Lets see what happens eventually but banning people without proof can set a dangerous precedent is all i am saying.

There may not have enough evidence to sentence him for criminal charges that is required by court of law, however BCCI may have found just enough evidence to ban him. Sree should be lucky that he got away with ban only and not some jail time, should focus on other things now rather than taking on court.

Regardless of whatever the end verdict maybe, he is never representing India ever again. BCCI never gives second chance which i like the most about it. Fixers should stay away from Indian cricket.

Criminals hire the best lawyers to escape through holes in the justice system. This is why some lawyers make more than $500,000 a year. BCCI knows he is a crook, so they banned him forever. Azharuddin got a way and you have Shastri and Gavaskar in hidden cameras talking about what kind of wealthy lifestyle he lived before big money came to cricket in Cricket, he got away as well.
 
LOL he is acting in Malayale movies, Im sure he will go on to make more money acting in movies than he has made playing cricket.
 
Disgraceful as poor Sree is being made scapegoat again.

What about all the other IPL Mafia dons in Chennai super kings, the underworld illegal Mumbai betting syndicates etc. Are they all being tackled as well ??

Probably not so just keep blaming Sreesanth for all IPL and Indian match fixing.

#keep the dirt under the rug.

CSK wasnt involved in fixing, owner was caught BETTING, and for that his team was suspended for two years. If you have a source proving match was fixed by IPL/CSK then please provide me and ill accept im wrong, if not then your post is nothing but a rant and have no facts.

Sreesanth is such a disgrace like Azhar was in 90s. Glad BCCI have balls to banned them for life.

Then close down those loopholes which lawyers exploit. Until then, you cant punidh someone just because you feel he is guilty and dont have conclusive evidence. I am talking generally, not sreesanth's case because Kerela high court must have been convinced by the evidence provided by BCCI. I will still wait for the eventual outcome after sreesanth pursues it in SC.

wrong. A private company is not a court of law. In a court of law i have to have broken one of my country's laws to be deemed guilty. In a private firm i just need to break their own private rules. A private firm can give me a life ban just because i am late everyday or for disciplinary reasons. Will a court of law punish me for the same?

Things like meeting a bookie is against bcci rules but not illegal in a court of law

Some very Good points. Thanks.

I have a question. Is IPL governed by a private body which has its separate rules? Or it doesnt matter whether its public or private?

Also does bcci have conclusive evidence that sreesanth met with the bookies (without reporting it ofcourse)? I Have not followed this part of the case.

Yes BCCI is indeed private body that doesn’t fall under sports ministry. Now coming to Sree meeting with bookies, well it also have video on youtube that Sree along with Chavan another player were caught in camera meeting with bookies.

Read this article and you’ll see why BCCI have banned him for life. He may have got away from getting punished by court of law as [MENTION=3327]Indiafan[/MENTION] have explained. Now, BCCI only care that Sree was meeting a bookie that too during IPL when he was supposed to report any approach made my bookies which he didnt. There are lot of circumstantial evidences which is enough to get him banned by BCCI, however court of law requires a confession along with circumstantial evidences in order to punish him, since there weren’t concrete evidences available to prove he fixed.

You can't close down the holes, even in developed countries such as US and UK criminals get away.

man dont be so naive .there r reports of ms dhoni and other 6 players names mentioned in a sealed envelope submitted to supreme court about their involvement. but strangely the names of those players were never revealed.

Blame supreme court or the ministers not the players. If they were indeed guilty why did Supreme court not punished them?

Just becuase someone put your name in an envelope doesnt make u guilty. You can believe whatever you want to, and stop calling people naive just because they dont think like you.

It is with proofs they mentioned names of those players involved in fixing.

U r the one who said there is no proof of player involvement from csk. I mentioned to u the reports circulated all over indian media about players other than the ones caught in spot fixing and the names of players submitted in sealed envelope to Supreme court.

U r quitely ignoring them and dissing the guy u hate

They have punished the franchise instead of the players.

If u think there is no cover up of players wrong doings then there is nothing to discuss

Have u seen that proof because i have not. Like i said why didnt supreme court punished the players, why didnt BCCI punished them?
Just because names circulated in media doesnt make them guilty, you need a proof. Indian media is probably most corrupt ones out there, id never believe whatever they have to say.

So, either supreme court is corrupt or the proof wasnt enough, pick your choice.

You’re cooking up conspiracy now since you cant prove that players were indeed involved. Yes there isnt anything to disucss if you’re only gonna cook up some conspiracy.

Thats what i m saying Supreme Court is corrupt and to limit further damage to cricket they brushed it under the carpet.

I m not cooking any conspiracy. It is front page news all over. But u r ignoring it conveniently.

We have a logical Indian fan here, everyone. I think most Indians know there was some cover up and prefer not to discuss it because the Supreme Court decision is final. I would actually say that it takes guile to cover up something the way BCCI did. That was the right way to handle it and I wish PCB had the same capability. We really need it! Fixing issue runs much deeper than we know of and we've seen over and over again how prevalent it is. There's always a scapegoat and it's better if the can of worms isn't opened and analyzed, sadly.

News media do cook up stories to sell their news, Id always take their news with pinch of salt. Never really trust Indian media.

So blame the supreme court and not players. Because they are bigger culprits for covering up the crook players. They(Player) are innocent until proven guilty, in this case none were charged with anything. So, you calling them fixers is actually a massive allegation that doesnt have any actual evidence beside some news media. One way or there, i stand by my words CSK or IPL never were charged or found guilty of fixing, only few players including Sree were guilty of meeting bookies and doing some fishy things.

Yknow right when players name is randomly thrown in media for some cooked up story, it will leave behind lasting impression even if the player(s) weren’t guilty of anything. In this case name of Raina/Dhoni were caught up in crossfire, and Supreme court did right thing taking matters in their own hands. Now some people here think Supremecourt is corrupt(they may be) but why would they do it? Its the same supreme court who took on Ambanis(richest Indian), same supreme court who have took on BCCI( richest sporting body in India) and there are many other instances where even a powerful person were made look silly by Supreme court.

So, unless if you guys have actually seen an evidence where players were invovled in fishy business, i suggest stop defaming them.

Whats with some of your guys new found love for Sree here, he is no scape goat here, he was caught on camera where he was meeting up with bookie outside his hotel. Now, what was he doing late meeting up with bookie?

There is enough circumstanial evidence to ban him but not enough to prosecute him in court of law for crime.
 
I m not cooking any conspiracy. It is front page news all over. But u r ignoring it conveniently.

Do you even know how silly that sounds, one of the name that was in media was of Dhoni.

MS Dhoni makes 26M per year during the fixing saga. So, why would he wanna risk all that money just for few thousands of $$? Or unless he was being paid more than 26M that made him take risk?

So, now you also think Dhoni is fool enough to damage his earning plus his legacy just for few thousands dollars?

Think logically and not just blindly follow the Indian media which is probably most corrupt media organisation in world. I dont even know if anyone take them seriously, they are like Big boss, a cooked up reality show nothing else.

I don't have a second for sreesanth and i strongly believe he is guilty.

My problem is u r conveniently ignoring other players involvement.

Untill Supreme Court discloses the names of players people have every reason to believe its a cover up

No love for anyone. I actually like how no important information about the incident is in public light and it's already dug pretty deep. No one cares about this incident now. It was handled in the right manner. But if you're to put two and 2 together, it's very plausible that the owner had some players involved if he was betting on his team.

This issue is over and it's not like India lost a valuable player. Should just move on.

Thats the confusion part, some fans think owner was invovled in fixing, but he was invovled with betting. Betting is illegal in India for which he paid price(losing the ownership of club) and franchise were also charged with suspension. But here [MENTION=144593]sachin100[/MENTION] is claiming totally different thing.

I believe what is actually out there and not some conspiracy. Sree’s guilty out there for everyone to see, heck you can even find a video of him meeting bookie. Now, other players invovlment had no wuch evidence nor any link proven. You’re only going with media speculation.

And you failed to answer me, why would Dhoni risk 26M for few extra thousand dollars?

Just answer me that logically and id accept Indian players were guilty

Do u know how much is gurunath meyappan worth? Do u know how much is rajkundra s worth?

Do they need betting and tarnish their image? Greed has no limits
 
You think he would bet on his team without having someone working on the inside?

Again its a circumstantial evidence which you may be right, but you cant charge them until its proven. Let say players werent involved but media drag their names in public, now Supreme court clears their names, but they will always have this attached to their legacy. Some would even start calling them traitor and these could have significant impact on player(s). So, which is why i believe supreme court handled the case pretty well. Onething i dont get it is, why would supreme court protects player(s), when they have never spared anyone in their history. Heck even the richest Indians are shown no mercy by same court, so money can not be the motivation. So what exactly it is that supreme court never wanted us to see? Or perhaps there never was anything to begin with..
 
Do u know how much is gurunath meyappan worth? Do u know how much is rajkundra s worth?

Do they need betting and tarnish their image? Greed has no limits

Again, you’re only replying with assumptions/speculations. How is Meyappan’s greed have anything to do with Dhoni? Meyappan may have more wealth but 80% of Indians dont even know him. But Dhoni is household name, he have his brand, his legacy that Meyappan would never have. Its not always about money

U r implying that he earns so much and he doesn't need to do fixing or other things.

I gave u a reply that money is never enough by showing example of others

If he is so pure his name would not have come in the first place

What if a news reporter was only venting on him and used his name, are u 100% sure that news is true and not cooked up story?
Lets end this subject here, you’re free to believe anything you want but Id suggest to be little cautious as your claim is borderline defamation. Mods might not allow it.

Not one reporter. It is reported on so many news papers.

U r also free not to believe the news.

Indian media is like group of herds, where one goes everyone follows. Did any of the media provided to public the actual evidence or they just kept saying “according to our unknown sources”. Indian media is well known fir diverting people’s mind from reality. Indian news should be renamed to Marvel or DC comics, they do come up with great stories.
 
Well first i dont write story based on my imagination, and if i do it should belong to comic section and not in front page. Secondly, journalism isnt my thing, and i dont even live in India anymore.

What made u to decide its imagination? What r the names of players in the sealed envelope?

Supreme Court never disclosed their names nor cleared them as not guilty.

That is the reason for our suspicion.

Well the same media have also known for cooking up story. In Mumbai reporter buys of kids to pretend to be stuck in pothholes during monsoon so they can potray that Municipal organisation arent doing their jobs. Ive witnessed such media drama and i never trust them.
 
Anyways lets not divert from topic, here we are discussing SREE and not players whos names were in list.

Nobody is questioning bcci stance on him. We want fixers banned for ever.

My problem is that we cannot just ignore other players wrong doings when there is so much suspicion
 
Stung by life ban, S Sreesanth hints he might play for another country

NEW DELHI: Stung by the lifetime ban imposed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) that was recently held by Kerala High Court, S Sreesanth has hinted he might spend the rest of his playing career turning out for another country.

Sreesanth was banned for life following allegations of spot-fixing during an Indian Premier League match in 2013. A single bench of the court had on September 18th ordered BCCI to lift the ban, finding that it cannot agree to the cricket board's stand that Sreesanth's exoneration by a Delhi court in 2015 doesn't matter.

After considering an appeal filed by BCCI, a division bench of the high court on Tuesday set aside the single bench's verdict.
Now, in an interview to Asianet News, Sreesanth has hinted that since BCCI has banned him from playing in India and it's a "private firm", he has the freedom to play cricket for any other country.

"BCCI has imposed the ban, not ICC. If not India, I can play for any other country, because am 34 now and I can only play for maximum six more years. As a person who loves cricket, I want to play cricket. And not only that, BCCI is a private firm; it is only us who say that this is the Indian team, but you know BCCI is a private body after all. So, if I play for any other country, it probably may be the same. Yes, representing Kerala in Ranji Trophy is different. I had hoped to win Ranji Trophy, Irani for Kerala, but the decision rests up on the BCCI," Sreeanth said in the interview on the sidelines of a public event in Dubai.

Following the verdict, Sreesanth took to Twitter expressing his displeasure terming it as the "worst decision ever". The 34-year-old questioned about the IPL franchisees Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals who were suspended for two years from the league after their owners were found guilty of corruption. Both the teams are set to return next year.

The pacer said he will continue fighting and questioned why he was being targeted despite the Lodha report submitting 13 names in a sealed envelope to the Supreme Court after its investigation related to the spot-fixing saga. "And what about the accused 13 names in Lodha report?? No one wants to know about it?i will keep fighting for my right..God is great," Sreesanth tweeted on Tuesday.

man dont be so naive .there r reports of ms dhoni and other 6 players names mentioned in a sealed envelope submitted to supreme court about their involvement. but strangely the names of those players were never revealed.

Dhoni makes $30,000,000 a year. Why would he risk his career and future gains to fix matches for couple of hundred thousands ?It is the smaller guys who are targeted.
 
We have a logical Indian fan here, everyone. I think most Indians know there was some cover up and prefer not to discuss it because the Supreme Court decision is final. I would actually say that it takes guile to cover up something the way BCCI did. That was the right way to handle it and I wish PCB had the same capability. We really need it! Fixing issue runs much deeper than we know of and we've seen over and over again how prevalent it is. There's always a scapegoat and it's better if the can of worms isn't opened and analyzed, sadly.

Only possible cover up some people suspect is with Raina, he was captured in a video with a girl in Sri Lankan hotel. He also seems to be mysteriously dropped and not even contract has been given to him.

that is exactly im asking him why would legend like Dhoni risk everything for small bucks. He have no logical explanations and would call Dhoni hungry for more money.
 
Tainted former India cricketer S Sreesanth on Friday said he would approach the Supreme Court in a last ditch effort to end life ban imposed on him by the BCCI following allegations of spot-fixing during an IPL match in 2013.

“That is the only option left with me, to approach the Supreme Court. At the end of the day, my life, except cricket is going really well. I will fight for my right. It is not just about playing for the country, but it is about getting the respect back,” Sreesanth was quoted as saying.

Sreesanth said he has been very quiet for the four-and-a-half years and felt it was high time for him to speak his mind.

“That is why I have opened up and started to speak. It is just the beginning and there are more things to come,” he added.

Sreesanth also clarified that he did not make any allegations against BCCI’s Anti-Corruption and Security Unit.

“All I said was that there were 13 accused and why they were treated differently. This is the only thing I asked. I never asked to reveal their names. More than anyone else, I know much better about it because I was the one who had undergone the toughest possible time,” he said.

“It is very easy to say he has done it, he has not done it but then one has to back it up with proof and show to the world. BCCI can keep making comments but at the end of the day people are not fools,” he added.

Meanwhile, Sachin Baby will lead the Kerala side in Ranji Trophy this season while wicketkeeper-batter Vishnu Vinod will be Sachin’s deputy. Sanju Samson had captained Kerala in the Syed Mushtaq Ali and Vijay Hazare Trophy one-day competition, but Kerala fell in the quarter-finals.

I watched some highlights of an India-England Test from 2006 this week, and Sreesanth was bowling some bombs. A bad waste of good talent.
 
Former India cricketer S Sreesanth,has made a big revelation of racism in Indian cricket team, he told during a show on local media outlet:

"All my life I have been.... I can say it. See anything below Bombay was more like Madrasi. I have been hearing it from the time I was playing Under-13 to Under-14 to Under-16 to Under-19. Then we had the Kochi (Tuskers Kerala) team and it was like playing for the country again."
