IN a dramatic development, the Assam Cricket Association has suspended four players for trying to “influence and attempted to instigate players” during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy held in Lucknow.
This was stated in a statement issued by the state cricket body on Friday. What seems interesting is that the Anti-Corruption and Security Unity Unit of the Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) conducted an enquiry into allegations of trying to ‘influence’ players and found the four cricketers guilty.
