3 India Tests under fixing scanner

New Delhi [India], May 28 (ANI): The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Sunday said that it has a zero-tolerance approach to any activity or act that brings the game of cricket to disrepute or mars the integrity of the game.
The BCCI's anti-corruption unit is working closely with the International Cricket Council's (ICC) anti-corruption unit on the alleged claims by a television channel, the body said in a notification.
A Middle-East television channel recently carried out a sting operation which alleged pitch doctoring in three Test matches which India played.
The matches in question are India vs Sri Lanka (Galle, July 26-29, 2017), India vs Australia (Ranchi, March 16-20, 2017) and India vs England (Chennai, December 16-20, 2016).
While India won the match against Sri Lanka and England, the match against Australia ended in a draw.
The channel also alleged the involvement of some Australian and England players in spot-fixing.
The Indian connection to the latest scandal is a former Mumbai cricketer Robin Morris, who is now alleged to be a match-fixer.
In the sting operation, Morris is seen introducing a pitch curator to the undercover reporter. He is also boasting about getting pitches doctored as sought by fixers. (ANI)
