Board of Control for Cricket in India President Sourav Ganguly has revealed a shocking statement about a bookie who had approached a player behind the scenes during the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 tournament. However, this infamous activity had been reported to the Board's Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU). Earlier, Ganguly himself promised corruption-free tenure in BCCI.

However, the exact details of the bookie are not known yet. "Even in the Syed Mushtaq, I was told that one of the players was approached but I don't know the exact name. But there was an approach made and he reported it," Ganguly said at a press conference after the BCCI's Annual General Meeting (AGM). Match-fixing is deemed contrary to the spirit of the gentleman's game and the former captain added that what players do after bookies approach them is the huge problem. "That's (approach) not the problem, that's not wrong. What is wrong is what happens after they get approached," he added. Ganguly made a shocking statement when asked about the match-fixing scandals that stunned the Tamil Nadu Premier League and Karnataka Premier League. In late September, the Tamil Nadu police came across clues of match-fixing racket in the Tamil Nadu Premier League. A match-fixing scandal also came to light in the Karnataka Premier League last month, which led to an arrest of an international bookie and a few players. Ganguly stated it is "very hard for the Board to stop tournaments, because somebody is just approached" but at the same time confessed that "in some of the states it has gone to the next level". "We have dealt with it (in case of TNPL and KPL). We have spoken to respective states. The KPL is on hold now till all these gets cleared. "There are tournaments in Chennai, Saurashtra and Mumbai. For Saurashtra and Mumbai, there has not been any complaints, but in Chennai, there have been couple of complaints, but we will deal with it." He also added that the Board will have to strengthen its Anti-Corruption Unit to tackle these kind of issues. "Nobody wants this, it doesn't help anyone. And we will put a system at the two leagues in which betting and fixing happened, KPL is on hold and Chennai (TNPL) has suspended the two franchises. "We have to get anti-corruption system right, try and put the best anti-corruption, try and make it even stronger and assess it. If it doesn't work or doesn't stop, we will have to think of something else."
