Indian captain Suresh Raina rubbished reports of link with a bookmaker after the news broke out on Indian television channels on Friday morning."There are so many people who get clicked with me," Raina said, "I can't really be knowing about them."
The issue cropped up after television channels claimed that the Indian captain was seen in company of people, who were involved with the betting mafia, during his visit to Shirdi after India won the 2011 ICC World Cup.
"All I can say is that I went with my manager to Shirdi and that's about it," he said.
Raina will lead a second-string India cricket team against the struggling West Indies when the two sides clash in a one-off Twenty20 match on Saturday.
Led by Suresh Raina, India are without seniors such as Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag and regular skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni among others, but they can still turn the tables on the West Indians whom they have never beaten in a Twenty20 match before.
