A cricketer, competing in the Indian Premier League in the UAE, has “reported a corrupt approach”, putting BCCI’s anti-corruption unit (ACU) on high alert.

The thirteenth version of the IPL is being held in the UAE in a bio-secure condition, which has essentially diminished the opportunity for people with questionable accreditations to move toward players legitimately.

The danger, nonetheless, stays as players can be drawn nearer via web-based media.

“Yes (a player has reported approach),” Singh, the former DGP of Rajasthan Police said.

“We are tracking him. It will take some time,” he said when asked if the alleged corruptor or “Person of Interest” has been nabbed.

BCCI ACU chief Ajit Singh confirmed the development of a news agency.

As per the anti-corruption protocol followed by the BCCI, the name of the player (Indian or overseas) or the franchise is kept confidential.

Most of the players, especially the younger ones are mostly on social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter where unknown people masquerading as fans try to befriend them.

A senior BCCI official said all the players whether abroad or Indian global, uncapped homegrown players have all gone to different enemies of debasement classes.

“The player who was approached immediately sensed that something was fishy. He had a suspicion and he immediately shared his concerns with the ACU,” a BCCI official privy to the development told a news agency on the condition of anonymity. “Every player, even those who have come from the U-19s, are well aware about each and every anti-corruption protocol.”

Because of wellbeing security conventions this year, the ACU sorted out its required guiding meetings online for each of the eight groups, rather than face to face.

BCCI ACU boss Singh is driving an eight-man group in the UAE.

The BCCI has tied up with UK-based organization Sportradar to forestall wagering and other degenerate works on during the IPL, through its Fraud Detection Services.
