one match where Gurunath Meiyappan allegedly bet against his own team winning.

It also brings out, through transcripts of phone conversations, the alleged close links between

Gurunath and the actor-punter Vindoo Dara Sing :

to whom he provided match-related information that was then passed on to bookies. ...

The Mudgal committee's report states: "Mr MS Dhoni, Mr N Srinivasan and officials of India Cements took the stand that Mr Meiyappan had nothing to do with the cricketing affairs of Chennai Super Kings and was a mere cricket enthusiast supporting Super Kings."

Salve said that in denying any knowledge of Gurunath's role in Super Kings, "the Indian cricket captain has been indulging in corrupt conduct". He also named the India Cements employees who held positions in the BCCI. The judges were surprised to learn that Dhoni also happened to be a vice-president of India Cements and were presented with documentary proof of Dhoni's appointment.
