The Indian cricket team spinner R Ashwin has been charged with ball tampering in the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL). Madurai Panthers also filed a formal breach against Ashwin and his franchise over ball tampering in their game that was played on June 14. On this issue, the people in charge of the TNPL have now requested the evidence to be presented by the Madurai Panthers. The franchise alleged in the official complaint that Dindigul Dragons applied chemically treated towels so that the ball could be heavy. They also accused the ball of making a metallic noise when it gets hit by the ball due to tampering.

“They have filed a complaint, which we have acknowledged. Though they have to lodge any complaints within 24 hours of the game, we have still accepted it and have asked them to furnish proof of their allegations. We will be forming an independent committee if we find there is any truth to their allegations. Without sufficient evidence, it is wrong to put forth such allegations against a player and another franchise. If they don’t provide any evidence, then Madurai will face due sanctions,” Prasanna told The Indian Express.

“A serious case of ball tampering occurred during our recent match against Dindigul Dragons. Despite repeated warnings, the Dindigul team blatantly tampered with the ball, using towels that appeared to have been treated with chemicals,” Madurai Panthers COO S Mahesh wrote a detailed letter to the TNPL authorities.
