ICC investigates New Zealand Canada match following a documentary aired on Friday. The Canadian broadcast alleged corruption linked to Cricket Canada. The specific over bowled by captain Dilpreet Bajwa is now under scrutiny. The incident happened during Canada’s match against New Zealand at the men’s T20 World Cup. Bajwa bowled the fifth over of New Zealand’s chase. He started with a no-ball. He followed with a wide. The over conceded 15 runs.

Canada opened with pace bowlers initially. They switched to spin early after an expensive start. Bajwa became captain shortly before the tournament. The timing of his over and its execution raised red flags. The ICC Anti-Corruption Unit confirmed it is aware of the programme. It cannot comment on ongoing investigations. Its work covers intelligence, education, prevention, and active probes when threats emerge.

ICC investigates New Zealand Canada match but other problems also exist. A separate investigation involves a leaked phone call. Former Canada coach Khurram Chohan allegedly claimed senior board officials pressured him. They wanted specific players selected for the national team. The audio also included attempted match-fixing claims. Those accusations lack firm supporting evidence. Former coach Pubudu Dassanayake made similar selection interference allegations. He has taken legal action against Cricket Canada for wrongful dismissal.

Cricket Canada faces governance issues and internal instability. Leadership changes created chaos. Delayed payments to players hurt morale. Contract questions remain unanswered. The documentary also raised claims about threats and organized crime links. The ICC official said those matters fall outside ACU authority. Domestic law enforcement must handle those. The cricket world watches closely.
