New Delhi:BCCI president N Srinivasan might have called his son in law Gurunath Meiyappan as just a cricket enthusiast but Chennai Super Kings opener Michael Hussey has said that the betting accused official was actually running the IPL team.

In his book, Underneath the Southern Cross, Hussey has said that team owner N Srinivasan had handed the control of the team to Meiyappan.

“Our owner was Indian Cements, headed by Mr Srinivasan,” Hussey wrote in his book. “As he was also on the board of the BCCI, he gave control of the team to his son-in-law Mr Gurunath. He ran the team along with Kepler Wessels, who was coach.”

Former team principal of Chennai Super Kings, Meiyappan was charge sheeted along with 21 others for gambling, cheating and criminal conspiracy, in the spot-fixing case of the Indian Premier League.

Meiyappan was accused of revealing confidential information of his team and using the same for betting.
