Re: Arrest Over Cricket 'Match-Fixing' At Lords
Though it is likely other teams are indulging too, should Pakistan cricket be shunned/banned completely by ICC?
What a catastrophic day for Pakistan!
Watch Pakistan cricket to find a new bottom everyday!
Re: Arrest Over Cricket 'Match-Fixing' At Lords
^ here we have again provided an opportunity to the world to blame Pakistan for all the negative acts ... This should be called as Terrorism in Cricket, and all those who are involved in this match fixing should be named as Terrorist !!!
Re: Arrest Over Cricket ‘Match-Fixing’ At Lords
they should be treated like those innocents were treated in sialkot 
nothing more is shameful than selling ur country’s pride
Re: Arrest Over Cricket 'Match-Fixing' At Lords
With the head crook Zardari as President, no one will be punished by PCB. On the other hand ICC may ban these players.
Re: Arrest Over Cricket 'Match-Fixing' At Lords
I dont know why i feel it wont happen.
dude how can it NOT happen? how can there be any other option? how can we let them get away with it AGAIN?
I say the current lot should be punished... made an example out of. then go back and open the case against the idiots from the 90s and make an example out of them too including our head coach and assistant coach as well. dayr ayad durust ayad. that's where the problem started. they were let off easily and we lived to see today's shenanigans by this generation. if we'd made an example out of the retards from the 90s, today's kids would be insaan kay bachay.

please keep your pants on.
no one deserves mob justice regardless of whether they’re guilty or not and regardless of what they’re guilty of. civilized countries have laws and courts…
Re: Arrest Over Cricket 'Match-Fixing' At Lords
Besides other players, I personally feel huge sorry for this young talented Muhammad Amir, I felt so much proud when the other day he grabbed 6 wickets, Im sure he must have been brain washed !
Its been really difficult for us while living as an expatriate to face the world and the place where Im living here in UAE, the indians will definitely make a fun tomorrow for all that has happened to Pakistan by our players ...
Hard time for the nation, tough luck for all the Pakistanis ...

MAJEED: "They've toned down match fixing a lot, yeah. They've made it very, very difficult in many, many, ways. "These guys won't deal with just anybody. The only reason they'll deal with me is because they know I'm professional, they know my background, they've known me for so many years, yeah.
**"I've been doing it with them, the Pakistani team, for about 2½ years. And we've made masses and masses of money." Later that night Majeed boasted how it was the players who got HIM into match-fixing. He told us: "The players would never tell anybody else They were the ones who actually approached me about this. This is the beauty of it.
*"I was friends with them for four, five years and then they said this happens. I said really?"

on Geo TV, just heard Yahya Hussaini. he said he talked to Azhar Majeed who said that he only found about the allegations against his brother through TV and that he has no relationship with him. then he said that his brother was framed.
what a dirty lot.

Cricket matchfixing reports are ‘just rubbish,’ says brother of arrested man in Pakistan inquiry
LONDON (AP) - The brother and business partner of the man arrested in connection with matchfixing allegations involving the Pakistan cricket team has told The Associated Press he believes the reports are “just rubbish.”
Azhar confirmed his brother Mazhar Majeed was the man arrested by police after a report in British newspaper the News of the World alleged Pakistan players had deliberately bowled no-balls during the fourth and final test against England at Lord’s as part of a betting scam.
Azhar Majeed said, “I found it not laughable, because you don’t laugh at things like that, but I thought it was just rubbish.”
Mazhar Majeed was secretly filmed by the newspaper apparently accepting 150,000 pounds ($232,000) in order to make sure no-balls are bowled at certain times during the match.

Pakistan captain named in Test fix claims
A BRITISH newspaper story names Pakistan captain Salman Butt as the ringleader of a group of players who have been paid to fix the fourth Test against England being played at Lord’s
The News of the World story also claims that bowlers Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif and wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal are involved.
British police have already arrested a man over the claims.
"Following information received from the News of the World, we have arrested a 35-year-old man on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud bookmakers,‘’ said a spokesman for London’s Metropolitan Police.
News of the World, Britain’s biggest-selling newspaper, alleged that two Pakistan bowlers delivered three blatant no-balls to order.
The weekly tabloid said it gave about $260,000 to a middle man who correctly told them precisely when the deliveries would be bowled.
The newspaper published images and dialogue from the encounter and a picture of what it said was one of the promised no-balls on Friday.
Pakistan collapsed spectacularly yet again in the series as England closed in on an innings victory on Saturday.
*
"I can confirm that we are aware of the allegations and Scotland Yard police are with us now at the hotel and we are helping them with their enquiries,‘’ Pakistan’s team manager Yawar Saeed said.*
"This is as much as I can say at the moment.‘’
The News of the World also claimed the alleged fixer, Mazhar Majeed, also tried to rig the third Test between England and Pakistan at the Oval to prove to the newspaper’s undercover reporters that he could do it.

The cricket website Cricinfo says it has heard from a source close to the investigation that a sum of about $43,000 was found in the room of one Pakistan player, with further sums of between $5000 and $7000 on two other players.**
Re: Arrest Over Cricket 'Match-Fixing' At Lords
I am sure that players knew that they are busted before they came out to bat and their application just wasnt there. Must have been high tension already in the dressing room and they knew what was coming up...
