The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) is currently being played in India, which is the world’s biggest T20 cricket league. It is being organized in different cities in India between a total of 10 teams. Meanwhile, a big news has come, the BCCI has imposed a lifetime ban on former co-owner of the Mumbai T20 League team Gurmeet Singh Bhamrah for trying to fix matches.

According to the report, BCCI Ombudsman Justice Arun Mishra has banned former co-owner of the Mumbai T20 League team Gurmeet Singh Bhamrah. He is accused of contacting Dhawal Kulkarni and Bhavin Thakkar for match fixing during the second edition played in 2019. Dhawal is a well-known face who has played for Mumbai Indians in the IPL but is now retired. He has also played 12 ODIs and 2 T20 Internationals for India.

Gurmeet Singh Bhamrah was also associated with the GT20 Canada League, which is now closed. He is no longer involved in the Mumbai T20 League either. Bhamrah was the co-owner of Sobo Supersonics. The order does not state for how many years he has been banned, but according to the BCCI’s anti-corruption code, it can be a ban from 5 years to life.
