Virat Kohli | Rohit Sharma | Match Fixing Claims |
Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.

Team India skipper Virat Kohli and vice-captain Rohit Sharma are likely to land in deep trouble following a report Al Jazeera which reveals pictures with bookies.

Meanwhile, fixing claims have taken the sport aback in recent times. And now as per latest reports, team India internationals can find themselves in huge trouble. Moreover, Al Jazeera has challenged that it has dossier revealing photographs of alleged match-fixer Aneel Munawar and his associates “hovering near, and purportedly talking to” international cricket players such as Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Umar Akmal during the T20 World Cup in Sri Lanka in 2012.

Despite the claims, there are no evidence or proofs to support the claims. Meanwhile, many games such as  England versus India at Lord’s Cricket Ground, South Africa versus Australia in Cape Town and several matches during England’s series against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates have come under the scanner.

 The evidence, from 2011 and 2012, points to a small group of England players allegedly carrying out spot-fixes in seven matches; Australia players in five matches; Pakistan players in three, with players from other teams carrying out spot-fixes in one match,” the report states. 

However, the report also denies any claims of match-fixing by Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.

There is no suggestion that these players were involved in match-fixing,” it added.

The new documentary suggests that all those persons works for a company named D-Company. It is a powerful South Asian mafia that operates out of Pakistan, India, and Dubai, and is likely to have good involvement in match-fixing.
