#2 ACA secretary demanded sexual favours for inclusion in the team (2009)
In 2009, former Team India manager and secretary of Andhra Cricket Association (ACA), V Chamundeswarnath, was accused of asking for sexual favours from the women players to get included in the team. Following the complaint, he was sacked as ACA secretary and the police booked a case in his name.
Savita Kumari, a former captain of Andhra women’s team, also lodged an official complaint with ACA, saying that Chamundeswarnath misbehaved with numerous women players during the training camps.
Durga Bhavani Maddineni, a former Ranji cricketer who had also filed a case in Chamundeswarnath’s name, allegedly committed suicide. It appeared highly suspicious that she had withdrawn her case just a few days before the incident and the entire saga was enshrouded in mystery.
Later on, the probe confirmed him as guilty and he was indicted by the Andhra Pradesh ADGP's report.
