I firmly belive in what Rashid said. How can India, struggling at 94/4 reach this high a target so easily.Looking at the match, it was very evident that the Pakisitan's players were not playing to win.. Yet another stupid review by Rediff..

Certainly not. There is no way, in fact no scope for the match to have been fixed as ICC is really cracking down on this issue and Pakistan has already go into enough trouble earlier. And for those of you who have sided Rashid Latif's statements - I have only one thing to say - Your judgement, sense of cricket and the taste of success is woefully poor
The magnificent performance shown by India under pressure have installed a great deal of confidence in the side.But some former Pakistani players didnot digest the victory.They have the habbit of making allegations of match fixing when they lose to India.Why same players dont complain when Pakistan loses to some other country.Now they have to accept that pace is not a factor to unstable Indian batting.They have to be discipline in their line and length.I think Pakistani bowlers tried to bowl fast,in he way they drained out stamina.Thats why they didnot able to bowl good line length in the second spell.Its not our batsman fault.it does not mean that the match is fixed.They are just spoiling the spirit of game.They are unnecessarliy putting pressure on ICC by making unnecessary and pointless accusations.Thats why the last ODI is under ICC scanner.

its a shame that a cricketer like latif can say that the match was fixed. it was gr8 to watch a series and to say that match was fixed its a shame . both sides played a marvellous game and to loose the series for them it really hurts to many pakistanis cricketers.but again and again india showed that in pressure they can win matches.and its only a matter of time that india can be top on the world.
