10 cricketers who became victims of false rumours

Sachin Tendulkar – Panama Papers Rumour

The 2016 Panama Papers leak briefly linked cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar to offshore accounts through a now-defunct company in the British Virgin Islands. The documents did not prove any illegal activity or tax evasion, and Tendulkar faced no official charges. The controversy faded quickly due to lack of evidence. The greatest batter of the world has called it a time on the game, but still holds a plethora of records in the annals of cricketing history.
