Azharuddin Controversies

Mohammed Azharuddin on Friday criticised Delhi Capitals after the no-ball controversy, saying their behaviour was "completely unacceptable".

'Azhar' the movie chronicles the life of former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin who was implicated in a cricket match fixing scandal in 2000 and consequently banned for life. In 2012, the Andhra Pradesh High Court lifted the ban.

There were reports that Azharuddin's former wife Sangeeta Bijlani and popular cricketer Manoj Prabhakar are set to sue the makers of the film for showing them in a bad light once the film releases

Former Indian skipper Kapil Dev on Friday refused to comment on the suspicion rose by Vinod Kambli on alleged "match-fixing" in the 1996 World Cup semifinal between India and Sri Lank but added that there are negative elements in the game.

Former England captain Nasser Hussain's controversial comparison of Indian fielders to 'donkeys' on Friday drew flak from former cricketers and the BCCI which has promised to look into what it called "totally uncalled for" remarks.

Former India skipper Mohammed Azharuddin on Wednesday lashed out at the media for dragging him into an unnecessary controversy on the basis of some "insignificant" comments, but stood by his opinion that Sachin Tendulkar did not have it in him to succeed as a captain.
