He was charged with misbehaviour, indiscipline, and financial irregularities in connection with the two rigged bids over the two new franchises, Kochi and Pune, after the IPL 2010 finals and was subsequently suspended from the BCCI. He was the subject of an investigation by the cricket governing body, which concluded that he was guilty of these allegations. He consequently received a lifetime ban in 2013.
