The BCCI issued a lifetime ban to Gurmeet Singh Bhamrah, a Mumbai T20 League team owner, for attempting match-fixing during the 2019 semi-finals. A player reported Bhamrah's approach to the authorities, leading to an investigation and BCCI Ombudsman Justice Arun Mishra imposing the lifetime ban to uphold the game's integrity. Bhamrah also had ties to other cricket leagues.
