On Monday, a sting operation carried out by India TV showed five domestic-level players, representing various IPL franchises, apparently succumbing to the lure of fixing.
“I fail to understand whatever is being said about spot-fixing. The voice in that telephonic conversation is not mine. It is very easy to frame anyone with a doctored audio clip,” Shalabh Srivastav said.
In the sting, he names a domestic cricketer in Kolkata Knight Riders, who shifted from the Kings XI, and a Pune Warriors player, who shifted from Royal Challengers Bangalore, claiming they were paid in black by franchises.
