# Rajeev Sathe Source: https://cricketin.org/authors/editor-in-chief Editor-in-Chief. [Editorial policy](/editorial-policy) 18+ Betting money on cricket carries a direct risk of financial loss, and it can become an addiction. Real-money online gaming is banned across India under the PROG Act 2025, which came into force on 1 May 2026. If betting is already costing you money you need, or sleep, or people close to you, the free Tele-MANAS helpline is **14416**, and it runs in 20 languages. Our [page on help for gambling harm](/guides/help-for-gambling-harm-india) lists what else exists. --- Sets the rules for the site and reads back what other people write Rajeev Sathe Editor-in-Chief, Cricketin Portrait is a line drawing, not a photograph. ## About Rajeev Rajeev decides what gets published here, what is held back for a better source, and who reads a page before it goes out. Fifteen years of consumer and sports copy in Mumbai, most of it on explainers where a wrong number costs the reader money. On this site Rajeev writes the pages about the site itself — policy, method, corrections — and reviews most of what everyone else files. Those own pages go to Karthik Iyengar, so nobody signs off their own work. ## What this role covers - Editorial standards, sourcing and update rules - Review of cricket, law, payments and harm pages - Corrections and reader complaints - The pages that describe how this site works ### Where the role stops An editor is not a lawyer, a tax adviser or a counsellor. Rajeev checks that a page cites the right source and states its limits, not that a reader should act on it. ## How a page with this name on it is checked Rajeev does not publish alone. Every page is read back by a second person before it goes out, and the byline names both. The standard both work to is in our [editorial policy](/editorial-policy), and the method behind the numbers is set out in [how we test](/how-we-test). Sources are linked in the page itself, primary text first. Where something cannot be checked yet, the page says so instead of guessing. Anything found wrong after publication is logged on the [corrections page](/corrections) with the date and what changed. ## Pages Rajeev signs ### Written by Rajeev (10) - [About Cricketin - Who We Are and What We Publish](/about) - [Affiliate Disclosure - How Cricketin Makes Money](/affiliate-disclosure) - [Our Authors and Editors - Who Signs a Page](/authors) - [What the Aviator Game Is and How a Round Is Played](/blog/what-is-aviator-game) - [Contact Cricketin - Editorial and Legal Requests](/contact) - [Corrections Policy and Log - How We Fix Errors](/corrections) - [Editorial Policy - The Standards We Work To](/editorial-policy) - [Cricket and Betting Guides Explained - Cricketin](/guides) - [Cricketin - Cricket Rules, Betting Maths and Indian Law](/) - [How We Test and Verify - Cricketin Methodology](/how-we-test) ### Reviewed by Rajeev (48) - [How Teams Qualify for the Playoffs: Reading a T20 Table](/blog/how-teams-qualify-for-playoffs) - [Is the Aviator Game Fair?
