In what comes as another big shock, India's premium pace bowler Umesh Yadav has been duped for ₹44 Lakhs by his friend who later turned into his manager, Shailesh Thakre. 

Yadav entrusted Thakre with his finances where the latter sanctioned money from him for acquiring a property in the MSEB colony in the Koradi area. However, after receiving the money the manager was never seen again.

The complaint has been registered in Koradi Police jurisdiction where he has been booked under sections 406, 420 of the Indian Penal Code. The accused is on the run while the police is trying to trace him confirmed CP Amitesh Kumar.

Yadav transferred money from his SBI account where Thakre bought the property on his own name and when asked for money, there was a refusal from his manager.

Previously, Thakre joined Yadav in 2014, however, in the past one year, he did not commit to any of the work the cricketer asked him to complete.

The report comes after previous news of ICC being defrauded came into the light where they were scammed for $2.5 Million by some online fraudsters who faked their profile as USA cricket associates.
