Two Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket teams have been suspended due to illegal betting and match fixing.

A three-member panel, which was appointed by India’s Supreme Court, has recommended a two-year suspension of the Chennai Super Kings and the Rajasthan Royals after team officials were found to be illegally betting on matches. The panel said that the suspension of the two teams was to protect “the integrity of the game.”

The panel led by former chief justice of the Indian Supreme Court Rajendra Lodha was formed in January 2015, following the match fixing controversy that erupted during the 2013 IPL competition. Former India paceman Shanthakumaran Sreesanth and two other Rajasthan players were arrested on suspicion of taking money to concede a fixed number of runs.

Sreesanth denied any wrongdoing but was subsequently banned for life by Board of Control for Cricket In India (BCCI).
