I would say an average Indian cricketer who has played for India for few years is quite rich by most standards. But Sree apparently lost some money in business venture. But that at best would make him "less rich"
Crookbond Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 I think it is fair assumption. I would say an average Indian cricketer who has played for India for few years is quite rich by most standards. But Sree apparently lost some money in business venture. But that at best would make him "less rich" It is still an assumption. If you used it for someone like a Dravid, Kumble, Tendulkar, Ganguly, Dhoni or even Yuvraj it would be a no brainer. I would have my reservations for someone like Sreesanth (27 Tests, 53 ODIs, 10T20Is) over a span of 6 years. But anyways; that's just me.
Crookbond Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Sreesanth no-ball: When an umpiring faux pas upset bookies Police sources say there was a furore among bookies after Sreesanth's no-ball in the May 9 match went unnoticed by the umpires. Not only did the bookies threaten and abuse Sreesanth, they held back his due payments. However, the fast bowler insisted on being paid and demanded a doubling of his rate. When Sreesanth's aid Jiju Janardhan called up the bookies to talk about the goof-up, the bookies told him they would revert about the payments. The bookies, according to the police, were fed up with Sreesanth's tantrums and had threatened him with dire consequences. Later former Rajasthan and Gujarat cricketer Amit Singh mediated to calm things down. (Even the bookies are tired of his tantrums!) On May 9, as the Rajasthan Royals took on the Kings XI Punjab in Mohali, Kerala pacer S Sreesanth, the Delhi Police allege, had instructions from bookies to bowl 14 runs in a fixed over. (Also read: Police say Sreesanth shopped for clothes worth 1.9 lakhs, bought smartphone for girlfriend) Sreesanth, they have alleged, tucked a towel in his waistband to signal that he would now bowl a fixed over and did stretches. That the police claim was to allow the bookies time to place bets. In his first ball, Sreesanth had bowled a dot delivery against Shaun Marsh, the Kings XI's number three batsman. In the next, he was hit for four by Marsh through the covers. He bowled his third ball, which a dot ball. On the fourth he he gave away a single and the fifth he gave away four to take the total to 9 runs. On the sixth and last ball, which went for another boundary, the police say, Sreesanth bowled a no-ball. That would take the total to 14 off the over. Only, the Umpire did not signal a no ball and 13 runs were recorded off the over. The police allege they now have access to a phone conversation between a panicky Sreesanth and his friend Jiju, allegedly a bookie who has also been arrested in the spot-fixing case. In the conversation, Sreesanth allegedly asked his friend whether the bookies would still pay up, since he had kept his part of the deal. The Delhi Police has now asked the BCCI for footage of Sreesanth's controversial over from all camera angles. The special cell has also enlisted top cricketers to help them understand field placement of the arrested cricketers. Sreesanth said in a statement released by his lawyers yesterday, "I am innocent and have done no wrong. I have never indulged in any spot fixing." http://sports.ndtv.com/indian-premier-league-2013/news/208117-ipl-spotfixing-a-sreesanth-no-ball-that-the-umpire-didnt-spot
someone Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 There are so many articles here but no single quotes or credible sources. Some baseless and boring guesswork articles
Crookbond Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 There needs to be some record for these news channel sources viz. the number of times their "sources" have got it right versus the times they have got it wrong. Obviously, it is not possible for the media to name their sources but in the "Breaking News" world sometimes it is hard to believe that these sources are figment of imaginations to drive traffic to their websites or TV channels.
CSK Fan Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 I don't think any of us are in a position to judge Sreesanth's financial condition. Well he wouldn't be squandering his betting money on buying jeans worth laks or gifting his girl friend a cell phone if he had financial problems
bulbul Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Sources have also told CNN-IBN that apart from Meiyappan, other functionaries in the Chennai Super Kings may also be quizzed. :hmmm:

A two-member team from Mumbai arrived here this morning to question Meiyappan with whom arrested actor Vindoo Randhawa was in touch, and CSK’s top executives, police said. .
bulbul Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 The Delhi Police is likely to seek access to items found in S Sreesanth's hotel room in Mumbai. They will move court to seek access from Mumbai Police. The plea will be to request for the access to items seized from the hotel room where Sreesanth was staying. Fight between Delhi and Mumbai police for Sresanth's underwear :hysterical:
