League Notes: New Probe Into Indian Premier League Spot-Fixing Scam May Be Launched

In a new turn in the Indian Premier League betting and match-fixing probe, the Justice Mukul Mudgal Committee "may conduct the inquiry" against suspended Board of Control for Cricket in India President N. Srinivasan and 12 others, "including some prominent cricketers," after the Supreme Court on Tuesday ignored a BCCI panel for the job. Justice Mudgal said, "We have given our consent. It is subject to the Supreme Court approval on Tuesday (April 29)." Mudgal said that once the court accepts its consent, the committee "would sit and finalise the procedures of how to move forward and also decide whether any new member should be included" (PTI, 4/22). A member of the federal government-appointed panel responsible for reviewing anti-doping cases "will take no part in any deliberations involving the use of peptides" at Australian Football League and National Rugby League clubs "because of his previous dealings with sports scientist Stephen Dank." Peter Fricker, an "experienced and highly respected sports physician" and former director of the Australian Institute of Sport, ­"declared his potential conflict" to Minister for Sport Peter Dutton prior to his appointment to the Anti-Doping Rule Violation Panel three weeks ago (THE AUSTRALIAN, 4/23).
