IPL Fiasco: Dhoni's Stake In Sports Marketing Firm Raise Suspicion

"Don't know what exactly is running in the news but just to clarify I am not with Rhiti Sports," tweeted R P Singh after the report came out. R P Singh has played 14 Tests and 58 ODIs for India. He has taken 40 wickets in the longer format and has 69 scalps in the one-dayers. He has been out of favour for some time and has not played a Test or ODI since 2011.

Rhiti Sports is owned by Arun Pandey, a close friend of Dhoni. In 2010, Dhoni signed up with Rhiti reportedly for 210 crore, an average of 70 crore a year, the costliest deal in Indian cricket.

Surprizingly, Anurag Thakur, BCCI joint secretary told Economic Times that he had never heard of this accusation.

“I have heard it for the first time. If there is a concern, we may look into the matter,” reports First Post.

However, the joint secretary admits it or not but still there are concerns about the matter, especially when it comes to the captain of the Indian cricket team.
