Former President International Cricket

Council (ICC) Ehsan Mani is disgruntled over the conduct of the game's ruling body in connection with Indian Test batsman Suresh Raina.

Controversy hit the Indian cricket when a news report claimed that during the recent tour of Sri Lanka, Indian batsman Suresh Raina was seen in the company of a woman known to be an associate of a man allegedly linked to a bookmaker.

As reported the Sri Lankan Cricket Board, while bypassing the ICC, reported the incident to its Indian counterpart. This act should be questioned by the ICC and a thorough probe into the incident should have been carried out.

According to the report, during the recent tour to Sri Lanka, 23-year old Raina was seen in company of the woman more than once.

The report further claimed that Sri Lanka Cricket provided BCCI with the CCTV footage from cameras installed at the Indian team hotel

in Sri Lanka. The BCCI however denied receiving any report or footage from the SLC.
