Police Probe Kashmir Cricket League Collapse After Organisers Vanish

The episode highlights gaps around unauthorised private leagues operating outside Indian cricket's regulatory framework.

Overview

  • Jammu and Kashmir police have registered a cheating and breach of trust case and opened an investigation into the Indian Heaven Premier League.
  • The Srinagar tournament stopped after roughly 12 matches, with organisers allegedly leaving overnight between October 31 and November 1.
  • Players, officials and hotels reported unpaid dues, with the Radisson in Srinagar citing about Rs 51 lakh outstanding.
  • Multiple former international players featured, and some, including Chris Gayle and Jesse Ryder, left early as payment issues surfaced.
  • Authorities and sports bodies have distanced themselves, the J&K Sports Council said it had no collaboration, and the DDCA removed Ashu Dani from a junior selection post while police work to trace the promoters.
