Ex- secretary of BCCI Jayawant Lele in his book alleged Mongia for fixing and playing intentionally slow, in his book 'I was there- Memories of a Cricket administrator'. As per Lele, Mongia was isolated in dressing room, he wrote 3 incidents which might had raised suspicions on Mongia by his fellow player like Tendulkar, Ganguly and caused his isolation. Per Lele 'In 1994's Kanpur ODI against West Indies, Mongia deliberately played slow and scored 16 runs in 9 overs, India lost that match'. He came under investigation after this match.
