Spot-fixing/Match-fixing scandal

people always say stuff about IPL.IPL is trash etc etc. what they do not realize leagues like IPL give the sort of financial independence to cricketers that they will never think about fixing when they are already getting paid ten times over. After all,cricketers are human beings,even though they love their motherland. money can be very tempting sometimes. especially when they see their fellow cricketers making money around them and they being left out.

I m not sure that even Sialkot stallions have been invited to champions league or not?

Regardless very very unfortunate......

Cursing the accused and talking about making an example out of them wont solve the problem. It just shows how fractured our society has become. Corruption is everywhere from an ordinary guy who sells bananas will make his best efforts to put 2 to 3 rotten ones into your bag even in the month of Ramazan to the President house. Everyone is busy doing corruption and making money. SO why single out the cricket team. The whole God damn nation is corrupt so why single out few. If we do want to make an example out of somebody it should start from within oneself.

unlike that banana seller the Pakistan cricket team is representing u guys in front of the entire world. this is how stereotypes develop as people will start making generalisations.
 
"Sydney Test Was Fixed" - Mazhar Majeed


LONDON: The man, who fixed matches on behalf of Pakistani cricketers, Mazhar Majeed, has told Scotland Yard more facts about the match-fixing scandal after he was arrested on late Saturday here.


As per the British media reports, Mazhar Majeed and his brother, Azhar Majeed, has been involved in the match-fixing scandal with the Pakistan cricket team.

Mazhar Majeed told Scotland Yard that Lord’s Test was not the only match he fixed with the help of a group of players inside Pakistan cricket team.

He claimed that Pakistani players had fixed the Sydney Test played against Australia in January this year. He added that the Sydney Test earned him 830,000 pounds.

“Pakistan players underperformed deliberately at Sydney against Australia in January this year”, Mazhar told the Scotland Yard in detention.

He further stated that he has been associated with current bunch of Pakistani cricketers for the last two and a half years and at least seven of the current Pakistani team are involved in the heinous act of match fixing.

Mazhar went on to say that Pakistan skipper Salman Butt is the ringleader of the match fixers in the team.

I always felt something fishy about the Sydney test. The way Kamran Akmal dropped catches wasn't something ordinary. Sydney test is enough to make Kamran akmal a suspicious character.
 
We should be officially awarded the most corrupt nation on this earth. We even sell our national pride for few bucks. Don't know who to trust. They spew big words on national tv, but in the back what they selling the country.
Replace chairman of cricket board, a fat sifarshi cousin of Ahmad Mukhtar need to go hajj.
Its extreme imbalance in performance,some time 400 and some time 74....sound like they have made enough money.

There was no doubt about Kamran's character in that match. He should have been kicked there and then. Aqib Javed pointed out those drop catches and especially that intentional missing run out to determine Akmal's dubious character. All such players should be severely punished and their assets should be confiscated, if proved guilty.

why do investigation, after few months they be back in team. Just blacklist them for the rest of life. They already make enough money by selling their mothers.......they been guilty number of time,cricket board sucks big time,who himself is corrupt, that's why allowing huge corruption openly,
 
Pakistan had fallen for 74 in this series far too often
MaYBE A LOT MORE PLAYERS ARE INVOLVED IN MATCH FIXING THAN REPORTED
 
they can make this video later, how one can be sure this video was before the match,

seems lie they want to finish the carrier of the danger man amir

Yup, that is my fundamental question as well - have they ascertained that these sting videos were recorded before the actual incidents? I know we would all assume Scotland Yard does its homework well, but has there been an official confirmation on this?

The other thing is that Asif's no-ball seems genuine. Amir's two no-balls were too pronounced to be brushed aside. But then bowlers have used this tactic to scare batsmen with the quick one and get them on the back foot. That would somewhat 'justify' Butt and Amir's discussion before the third no -ball and him looking at the bowler's foot rather than the batsman.

Sir there cant be any more humiliation than this. Am a sports man and always entered in play area for victory , no mater how weak or strong opposition was? Cant believe someone can enter ground for loosing that to wearing national colours. Sir the Bastards should be declared bastards and they should be called BASTARDS throughout their life.
Am sorry sir to be using abusive language but cant fight it
 
well i am shocked too, not in mood to watch ODIs anymore. Because it will be heart breaking to see those faces again who sold the country pride. Wish Mohsin Khan send new team and leave them with scotland yard.
Nothing left to defend this time, they all caught red handed. Let's see when they are coming Pakistan. I think they will stay in UK for few months.
