Slapping a five years ban over four players - Mohnish Mishra, Abhinav Bali, Shalabh Srivatsava and Amit Yadav - BCCI has also announced to withdraw all profits, benefits, rewards, recognition and fees during the barred period from all tainted cricketers.
T P Sudhindra has been barred for the life time. He would not be allowed to play any form of cricket in India recognized by BCCI or its sub-ordinate body, informed BCCI in a released statement.
