These allegations have been made by none other than the former Bengal wicketkeeper-batter Shreevats Goswami. He shared two small videos on his official Facebook account. The former cricketer also expressed his displeasure over the same and also questioned the intentions of both the teams who took part in this match.

“This is a super-division match in Kolkata club cricket, 2 big teams doing this, any idea what’s going on here? I am ashamed to see this having played the game which is so close to my heart. I love cricket and I love playing in Bengal but looking at this breaks my heart,” wrote Goswamy in the caption of the Facebook post in which he shared these two videos.

“Club cricket is the heart & soul of Bengal cricket please don’t ruin it; I think this is called “got up” cricket. Where is the media now?” he added further.
