Allegations of match fixing[edit | edit source]

The Sunday Times carried out a sting operation on a Delhi based bookie based on allegations that the ICC World Cup 2011 semi-final between India and Pakistan was fixed. The Times said that a Hindi film actress was used to lure cricketers to underperform but did not name her. The report included a blurred image resembling Mehta, who denied any role in the sting.[3][5] She is considering to sue the British Paper.[6]
