A suspension from all forms of cricket for six years has been imposed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Sunny Dhillon, a former assistant coach with the Pune Devils club in the Abu Dhabi T10 league.

Bangladesh all-rounder Nasir Hossain was one of eight individuals charged with violating the anti-corruption Code at the Abu Dhabi T10 in 2021.
Dhillon, along with eight other individuals, was charged with attempting to influence the results of matches played during the event.
Ashar Zaidi, and the club manager, Shadab Ahamed, were among the individuals who were additionally charged at the time. Billy 777 provides all updates about cricket.
In January of this year, Hossain was given a two-year ban. In August of 2024, Zaidi, Sanghavi, and Choudhary were given bans after they admitted to engaging in corrupt activities and breaking the European Central Bank (ECB) 's anti-corruption Code.
Following a comprehensive hearing and the presentation of both written and oral arguments, Dhillon was found to be guilty of the following charges:
In the Abu Dhabi T10 2021, being a party to an effort to fix, arrange, or influence matches or features of matches in an inappropriate manner is a violation of Article 2.1.1.
Failure to submit to the DACO all of the information on any approaches or invitations received to participate in corrupt conduct by the Code violates Article 2.4.4.
By Article 2.4.6, failing or refusing to comply with any inquiry conducted by the DACO concerning probable instances of corrupt conduct by the Code without convincing justification for such refusal or failure.
The day that Dhillon was provisionally suspended, September 13, 2023, has been retroactively applied to the ban he was given.
