The BCCI is probing Rajasthan Royals manager Romi Bhinder after he was caught on camera using a mobile phone in the dugout during an IPL match in Guwahati. The act violates PMOA anti-corruption rules. Officials confirmed the breach, with action likely after review by the match referee and ACU.
New Delhi, Apr 12: Rajasthan Royals' long-time team manager Romi Bhinder has courted controversy after TV cameras caught him using a mobile phone in the team dugout during their IPL match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
The BCCI has taken a note of the matter, and secretary Devajit Saikia said the veracity of the incident will be probed by the board before reaching any "conclusion".
"We need to thoroughly examine where exactly the event happened and whether the phone was used. We will conduct an internal examination before reaching a logical conclusion. We will check the video footage and gather evidence before reaching any conclusion," Saikia told PTI.
The footage of the incident was first shared on Instagram by a social media influencer and it has been ascertained that Bhinder was indeed using a mobile phone with teen sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi sitting beside him during the Royals' six-wicket win in Guwahati on Friday.
