The Lankan government ordered an enquiry into the matter and a special Police investigation unit recorded Aluthgamage's statement. During the mega-investigation in the history of Sri Lankan cricket, the set of former players, including Arjuna Ranatunga and minister Aluthgamage sit in the centre of the round table when they start discussing the matter. This time around too, we were lucky enough to be privy of this discussion and we were clearly told that we could discuss the same outside the purview of the attendees. 

Soon after the break, we were back at it again, when Ranatunga felt intimidated more than ever after the documents had come out in the public. He hid this matter for the longest years - 24 to be precise. When the entire council came to know of it, he was too shown the door just as his rival in the meeting. Ultimately, it came down to Aluthgamage’s claims. When the minister pointed that out, everyone immediately pointed fingers at him for pulling the Sri Lankan cricket board down with this allegation, in order to snatch this position. On top of that, they also played the video of two of Sri Lanka’s prominent members of the 2011 World Cup - Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene. That shut down the entirety of claims, which put the responsibility in India and BCCI’s favour to figure out the rest of the controversy. 

BCCI clearly were dejected when the case jumped right in front of them from their Sri Lankan counterpart. Just days after the Sri Lankan board had approached the Indian board to host the IPL, this came in as a shocker, with the BCCI deeply hurt by their backstab. But, forced by the ICC, the Indian board had to call in for a meeting, where they investigated their top-level authorities from that period. First off the list, incidentally, even BCCI found documents that would put them in a bad light - in particular, the Ajay Jadeja document, which has been pretty much stayed in the underground like Murali’s in the Sri Lankan cricket board. 

In just five years, everyone wondered how the former Indian batsman came out of trouble, out of the match-fixing one with relative ease. Immediately the board called for a time-out, where we sneaked peek to find out the dark side of the Indian cricketing board - with a lot of documents gone hidden right away, without anyone batting an eye. In 2010, UNP Colombo District MP SM Marikkar questioned Minister of Sports about Suresh Raina being involved in a possible match-fixing accusation. 

However, the match-fixing scandal was not the topic of discussion, as the Indian cricketing board clearly mentioned that it was unhappy with the Sri Lankan board for hitting them from the back. In reply, the board refused an IPL hosting opportunity to Sri Lanka. Following the meet, BCCI’s treasurer Arun Dhumal gave a call to the minister, asking him why he did that and to take his statements down. Then, we incredibly saw the turnaround from the minister, where he went on to say that it was just his suspicion that the World Cup was sold. 

Soon after that, just like how the IPL GC took a decision regarding the Chinese sponsors, they released out a statement which read, “We have had the Sri Lankan cricket board express their interest in hosting the IPL this edition but we are not looking to host the tournament in Sri Lanka in light of the latest controversy regarding the 2011 World Cup.”
