As IPL 2023 is being praised worldwide and fan following is increasing, a big news has come out. The information is that the inside information of the team was sought from a well-known Royal Challengers player. The player is none other than Mohammad Siraj who received a call on the phone some time ago, asking him about this detail.
According to a PTI report, Mohammad Siraj spoke to BCCI’s anti-corruption unit about this. Mohammad Siraj said that an unknown person contacted him after losing a lot of money in the IPL and asked for inside information on the team. Siraj immediately informed the BCCI ACU.
Who approached Siraj?
According to the report, a person in contact with Mohammad Siraj has been detained. It is revealed that he was not a bookie. He is a driver based in Hyderabad. BCCI’s anti-corruption unit has started an investigation into this.
There have been controversies of spot fixing in IPL
Let it be known that spot fixing controversies have arisen in IPL before. In the year 2013, three players including former fast bowler S Sreesanth who played for Rajasthan Royals were involved in this case. As a punishment these players were also banned for a long time.
Siraj showed wisdom
Let us tell you that Mohammad Siraj was wise and did a great job by reporting the phone of an unknown person to ACU. Because last year former Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan also received a similar phone call and did not inform the BCCI ACU after which he was banned.
Siraj has had a brilliant performance in IPL 2023
Let us tell you that Siraj is performing brilliantly in IPL 2023. This right-arm fast bowler has taken 8 wickets in 5 matches this season. Siraj’s economy rate is also only 7 runs per over. Even on Chinnaswamy’s flat pitch, Siraj’s performance has been good. Making runs on his bowling is proving to be a big challenge for the batsmen. However, his team is at the 8th position on the points table.
