In a first-of-its-kind move, the Hyderabad Cricket Association banned two cricketers registered in different age groups - Mohammad Babillail (under-19) and Shashank Mehrotra - for five years for allegedly submitting fraudulent documents to be eligible to play for Hyderabad.
Mr. Suneel Kante, Chief Executive Officer of HCA, said on Sunday that there were allegations about some cricketers indulging in fraud regarding domicile and age, and the HCA had asked the police to make an enquiry into them.
