Lanka match fixed
The match fixing scandal involving Pakistani cricketers has begun to reveal more details with the main suspect saying even the Asia cup match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka in June this year was fixed.
The News of the World, which exposed the massive match fixing scandal over the weekend, has now quoted Mazhar Majeed as saying that he usually fixes specific details of a game and not the whole result but the Asia cup match involving Sri Lanka was fixed.
"We don't do results that often. The last one we did was against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup, which was about two months ago. And you get a script as well, (such as) this bowler is going to concede this many runs, this batsman will do this,” the match fixer who was arrested yesterday was quoted as saying.
...
The newspaper named Pakistan's new captain, Salman Butt, top bowlers Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif and wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal as cheats who worked with the fixer.
Salman Butt was bowled for zero in the Asia cup match by Lasith Malinga while Mohammad Asif went for 55 runs off the 9 overs he bowled and Mohammad Amir 57 runs off his 10 overs.
