Former Indian Premier League (IPL) commissioner, Lalit Modi believes the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has evidence pertaining to instances of fixing in 2013’s Champions League Twenty20 (CLT20), but not coming out with them, due to ‘vested interests’.
Modi said from his Twitter handle, in a series of tweets, that the ICC and the BCCI have enough evidence pertaining to cases of fixing in cricket, which includes player statements as well.
