"This is absolutely baseless. It baffles me why
organisers are making such allegations at this moment. I smell
a conspiracy here. There is no demand of money, we know it is
charity match," Rajpal said.
"We will be meeting the organisers and playing the match
is secondary issue now. It is a big allegations that have been
leveled against the players and organizers should clarify.
That is why only there players have come and rest are in
Delhi," he added.
AMR Foundation spokesman Ansul Nagar said that there was
no particular deal and they had just planned to give the
sponsorship money from the charity match to the players.
"There was no deal. There was an emotional call, where in
we would be having this event in which all sponsors would come
in, all money would be given to the players directly and now
they are talking about 4-5 crores," he said.
Deepak, on the other hand, said that some of the players
were not given flight tickets and they had demanded for the
tickets and also claimed that the organisers had not confirmed
their participation.
"Why it has erupted I don't know. The only point that we
had is a couple of players were not given tickets and we
wanted they should be given the tickets. Organisers should
apologise for the allegations," he said.
"They have kept us in the dark about the details of the
match. We were not clarified or confirmed told anything about
the timing or any details," he added. PTI
