Summary

The CBC documentary 'Corruption, Crime and Cricket' broadcast on 10 April 2026 included the existence of a recorded telephonic conversation involving former Cricket Canada coach Khurram Chohan that the documentary's producers said was relevant to the ACU's match-fixing probe. CBC declined to publish the full audio in the broadcast, citing legal and procedural reasons; the recording has been provided in full to ICC officials.

What Happened

The Chohan recording is the second of the three main allegations the CBC documentary made against Cricket Canada governance. The first was the match-specific fifth-over allegation involving captain Dilpreet Bajwa; the third was the selection-pressure claim by former coach Pubudu Dassanayake.

The Chohan recording's contents have not been publicly released. CBC characterised the recording as containing statements that warranted ACU review; the producers cited legal and procedural reasons for not publishing the full audio. The recording has been provided in full to ICC officials. Chohan, in a statement through counsel, has said the recording has been mischaracterised by CBC's editing and is considering legal action against the broadcaster.

The ACU's investigation has not formally charged Chohan or anyone else as of early May 2026.
