Former cricketer Shreevats Goswami has raised concerns of match-fixing in Kolkata league cricket, particularly highlighting a match between Mohammedan Sporting and Town Club. Goswami, a member of the 2008 Under-19 World Cup-winning team, shared videos on social media alleging intentional dismissals by Mohammedan Sporting batters to concede points to Town Club, prompting the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) to initiate an investigation.
Goswami's accusations revolve around suspicious dismissals captured in videos of the match, with particular focus on actions by Mohammedan Sporting batters, allegedly designed to benefit Town Club. The CAB's decision to probe the matter reflects the seriousness of the allegations and aims to uphold the integrity of Kolkata league cricket amidst concerns of match-fixing.
