About the Book THE RIVETING STORY OF A FAKE IPL SCAM THAT SPANNED THE GLOBE-FROM MOSCOW TO MEHSANA AND BACK. Young and ambitious Faizal Ahmed has one goal in life-he wants to get rich, and he wants to get rich fast. When an outrageous idea strikes him one day, in a gambling den in Moscow, Faizal knows it could be his ticket to big money. The catch? He has to partner with a mobster and convince Russian gamblers to place high-stakes bets on cricket, a sport they neither watch nor understand. But a challenge is only a veiled opportunity, right? Cheerfully unscrupulous and entirely self-assured, Faizal prepares to set up the scam of his life. Hawala money, clandestine meetings, discreet text channels, rookie players, camera crews and live streams beaming across the world-this is a con job that spans the globe, from Moscow to Mehsana and back. Based on a true incident, Indian Punter League unravels the story of an audacious con where a group of small-time conmen managed to dupe seasoned Russian gamblers by staging a fake IPL. A story so wildly improbable, it seems impossible for it to be true. Only, it is.
