ED seeks Shastri's help in IPL investigation

MUMBAI: Former cricketer Ravi Shastri who is a member of the Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council has been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to help with their probe into the alleged financial irregularities in the running of the event during its first three seasons.

Currently Shastri is doing commentary for Star Cricket‘s telecast of the India versus England series.
 
ED officials said that Shastri was summoned as he was a member of IPL‘s governing council and would be aware of major decisions, concerning franchises, taken at that time.
 
Shastri and former Indian captains Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi and Sunil Gavaskar were the three governing council members who worked under the then IPL chairman and commissioner Lalit Modi.
