Delhi wicketkeeper-batter
Bedi, who was associated with the Chennai Super Kings during the 2025 IPL season and later represented the Central Delhi Kings in the Delhi Premier League, addressed the situation on Tuesday. Through a statement released on his Instagram account, the cricketer explicitly distanced himself from the claims, asserting that he is not the individual referenced by Bhatia during the investigation.

In his statement, Bedi characterized the attempts to link his name to the allegations as both false and defamatory. He confirmed that he has engaged legal counsel to pursue appropriate civil and criminal action against those responsible for circulating the claims. The player emphasized that he has no involvement in any activities related to the allegations made in the sting operation, which notably did not identify him by name in its original reporting.
