Ever since the inception of IPL, a lot of young talents have gained attention and some even went on to make their debut for India. One can say that IPL is a boon for Indian cricket but, it has always had this questionable image of being rigged in the minds of a section of fans.

The IPL spot-fixing scandal in 2013 proved those claims as three Rajasthan Royals players, S Sreesanth, Ankit Chavan and Ajit Chandila were caught for fixing matches and were arrested during the tournament. Adding to this, the owners of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, Gurunath Meiyappan and Raj Kundra respectively were involved in betting.

The players were banned for life by the BCCI and both the franchises were suspended for two years for their owners' involvement in betting.
