A report says a sting operation by Tehelka alleges that a Chennai Super Kings (CSK) player shared inside information with a former domestic player, who then sold the details to London-based bookmakers for about Rs 60 lakh. The same reporting says CSK is considering a course of action in response to the allegations.
The claim is presented as a match-fixing-related allegation connected to purported access to insider information. The sources also describe the matter in the broader context of “team leaks” and how such information is said to be traded for betting activity. While the reporting focuses on what the sting operation alleges, it does not provide details in the available text about any formal charges, investigations by governing bodies, or whether CSK or any individuals named have responded in public. The key elements repeatedly referenced are the alleged leak of inside information, the involvement of bookmakers in London, and the stated consideration of Rs 60 lakh.
