In one of the episodes of Inside Edge, Mumbai Mavericks spinner Devender Mishra signals the bookies by untucking his shirt to bowl an over where he would concede over 12 runs in the over as decided earlier by the bookies. This instance was directed at the infamous Spot Fixing scandal which defamed the IPL in 2013 Season. Three of Rajasthan Royals players were accused of engaging in Spot fixing.

Sreesanth took out a white towel and tucked it in his trouser to signal the bookies to start their procedures. He was asked to leak 14 runs in the over and the former Indian international leaked 15. Ajit Chandila, in turn, untucked his jersey twice and bowled the over which was decided by the bookies. Amit Chavan played the role of the mediator between the players and bookies.
