Match referee Farokh Engineer found Harbhajan guilty and suspended him from the Indian Premier League (IPL) with immediate effect. Harbhajan will be put under suspension until further hearing. According to IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi, there is enough evidence against Harbhajan.

BCCI President Sharad Pawar asked the IPL authorities to take stong action against Harbhajan if there is conclusive evidence against him. The BCCI may announce a ban on Harbhajan once the hearing is completed on Monday. The latest development has put Harbhajan in deep trouble and it may well affect his cricket career.
