Streaming website FanCode and Dream 11 have come under scrutiny for their involvement in the fake T20 league being investigated by the Punjab police. While the match was streamed by FanCode, the players were seen sporting Dream 11 on their jerseys. While FanCode has stated that they have shared all the documents and details with the investigating authorities, Dream 11 has refrained from commenting citing unauthorised usage.
Apart from FanCode which broadcast the Uva T20 League as being held in Sri Lanka even though it was being played at a local club ground in Sawara village close to Mohali, the fact that the players were seen sporting Dream 11 jerseys has seen BCCI’s Anti-Corruption Unit ask the investigators to look into the role of Dream 11 – a fantasy sports platform and also a sponsor in the Indian Premier League.
“We have given an input to the investigators that these 7-8 points of investigation, they can provide some evidence,” BCCI ACU chief Ajit Singh told IANS.
“FanCode streamed it. It was in the media that they stopped streaming once Sri Lanka Cricket told them…If they have streamed it, somebody must have approached them. They would tell the police who approached them. Then some documentation for Sri Lankan authorisation must have been given to them.
