Vansh Bedi denies match-fixing allegations after Tehelka sting

Vansh Bedi, a former Chennai Super Kings player, denied match-fixing claims during the IPL and Delhi Premier League on Tuesday. The 23-year-old said allegations linking him to a Tehelka sting operation were false and defamatory. Bedi said his legal team is taking civil and criminal action.

Bedi was acquired by Chennai for 55 lakh rupees ahead of the 2025 season but did not play a match due to injury. He was part of the Central Delhi Kings in the 2026 Delhi Premier League. The Delhi and District Cricket Association wrote to the BCCI after receiving one report of a corrupt approach during the tournament.

Chennai Super Kings will discuss the allegations at their Annual General Meeting on September 25. The franchise said the reports remain unverified.
