The 23-year-old dashing batter-keeper, who also had a brief stint with the IPL side Chennai Super Kings in 2025 before being replaced by Urvil Patel due to injury, was a part of the Central Delhi team during the 2026 edition of DPL.
Young keeper-batter Vansh Bedi, who had played one T20 match for Delhi in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, allegedly received a “corrupt approach” during the recent Delhi Premier League (DPL) and promptly reported the matter to league’s Anti-Corruption Unit. After a sting operation by Tehelka exposed a little known Nagaland pacer Rachit Bhatia making tall claims about fixing matches in IPL and state leagues, including spot-fixing and taking bribes from parents to get their kids into age-group teams, it was noted that a “corrupt approach” was made to Bedi but he was smart enough to follow the anti-corruption protocols.
“There was only one corrupt approach with regards to match-fixing that was reported to the ACU during the DPL. Central Delhi’s Vansh Bedi was approached by a fixer and he immediately reported the matter to the ACU,” a senior DDCA office bearer confirmed to PTI on conditions of anonymity.
Strictest action should be taken against anyone found guilty of trying to corrupt young players,” DDCA Apex Council member and noted lawyer Shyam Sharma said. “The Delhi & District Cricket Association (DDCA) has taken note of recent reports concerning alleged irregularities involving certain players and a franchise associated with the Delhi Premier League (DPL),” the DDCA statement on’X’ read. “We wouldn’t like anyone to go unpunished. In its official statement posted on ‘X’, DDCA didn’t name anyone but admitted that it had taken note of all the allegations. “DDCA would like to clarify that the allegations referred to in these reports are unverified and have not been established by any competent authority. The Association believes it would be inappropriate to draw conclusions about any individual, player or franchise based solely on such allegations,” it further stated.
