Gurunath Meiyappan

The rotten apple

There goes a proverb "A rotten apple can destroy thee whole lot". So is the case with the Owner of Chennai super kings "Gurunath Meiyappan". The team which gained respect and honor because of it's captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is now under the spotlight of fixing.

According to reports, Meiyappan was involved in many match fixings and his friend who helped him in this business was the "Not so Famous" film star Vindu Dara Singh. Together they are believed to have fixed many matches.

Gurunath also happens to be the son-in-law of the BCCI chairman Mr N.Srinivasan. Is not it a matter of shame? Mumbai police arrested Gurunath on charges of Fraud, Forgery and Cheating. He was the one who used to disclose his team's strategies to the bookies and fixers.

The joint commissioner of Mumbai police Mr Himanshu Roy said that he has been in custody and has been interrogated in details about his links and involvement in these fixed matches and he will be produced in front of court within 24 hours of custody as per court laws.

What this whole scenario has done, is put a question mark on the position of Srinivasan. According to some of the news channels, Srinivasan might loose his post as the BCCI chairman if he is found involved in it.

There was also a question mark on CSK playing the finals, but CSK fans are happy as they are seeing their fav. team playing the finals. This has surely been the most shocking and controversial news among all the 6 IPL so far. Whatever be the conclusion, Gurunath and his circle are bound to receive some legal punishment under court's law. And the most disappointing part is that it has put a big question mark on the fate of IPL 7.

# Now we see how a dishonest person, costs the whole team and the IPL. Sad to see these rich people begging like lame beggars for more money.
