The Centre on Tuesday asked the Delhi government to probe the alleged irregularities in the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA).

The sports ministry has written to the AAP government to look into the serious allegations raised by former cricketer Kirti Azad in 2014 about DDCA.

"Azad had raised serous issues like evasion of entertainment tax, misuse of land exclusively for sports, and opening of the bar on national dry day," said a Delhi government official.

Earlier on Monday, former India captain Bishan Singh Bedi met Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal complaining about corruption in the DDCA.
