All-Time Arrested XI in Cricket History
These players hit the headlines for getting apprehended and going behind bars.
6. Vinod Kambli
Vinod Kambli and Sachin Tendulkar played school cricket together but the former couldn’t become a huge icon as the latter. Serving India from 1991 to 2000 in international cricket, he turned out in 17 Tests and 104 ODIs. Donning the colourful jersey, he scored 2477 runs with a couple of tons and 14 fifties. While in India Whites, he racked up 1084 runs with four centuries and three fifties.
Kambli’s career was full of dramas. His fight with Mohammad Azharuddin is not hidden from the media. In 2011, he accused Azharuddin and his other teammates of fixing the 1996 World Cup semi-final against Sri Lanka. After 12 years of this incident, Kambli again hit the headlines for the wrong reason.
In February 2022, the former India batter got arrested by Bandra police for driving under the influence of alcohol and ramming his vehicle into the car of Tejaswini Powar, the wife of former India off-spinner Ramesh Powar. The 51-year-old former cricketer was later released on bail.
