Owner of IPL side Rajasthan Royals suspended

 

The Board of Control for Cricket in India has suspended the Rajasthan Royals' co-owner Raj Kundra for betting on Indian Premier League games. The decision came after Delhi police, who are investigating the IPL spot-fixing allegations, claimed Kundra had admitted gambling.

Kundra is the second team official to be suspended, after the Chennai Super Kings principal Gurunath Meiyappan, son-in-law of BCCI president N Srinivasan.
