Overview
- Ganguly, speaking on Raj Shamani’s podcast Friday, said he checked with Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and Anil Kumble about any approaches to fix matches.
- He said all three denied being approached, and he added that no one had tried to contact him about fixing either.
- Coverage presents the interview as a look back on a troubled era rather than new evidence or fresh claims.
- Reports recall that the scandal led to a lifetime ban for Mohammad Azharuddin and a five-year suspension for Ajay Jadeja.
- Ganguly said early results under his captaincy, including stronger overseas form, the NatWest Trophy and a first Test series win in Pakistan, helped rebuild shaken fan confidence.
