Delhi Police has reportedly indicated that it could widen the probe of an ongoing case of spot fixing in the sixth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) to include questioning of the owners of the Rajasthan Royals and the team's captain.

Television reports said that Shilpa Shetty Kundra and Raj Kundra, two of the owners of the Rajasthan Royals, and skipper Rahul Dravid, could be called in for questioning on the spot fixing case involving former Test fast bowler S.Sreesanth, and two other team players -- Ankit Chavan and Ajit Chandila.

According to the report, POlice Commissioner Neeraj Kumar has given the green signal for widening the probe.

 

A television channel is quoting sources, as saying that the May 3 match between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders may also be probed for possible spot fixing.

The decision to widen the probe comes after Kumar said that all of the accused are cooperating with Special Cell investigations.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has called a meeting of its Working Committee on Sunday (May 19) in Chennai to discuss the issue, following which further action against the players could be announced.
