Could be, as Micheal Clarke and a few others had said that it was all rubbish and there was no room for match fixing in that match. Maybe their comments had effect on the ICC anti-corruption body.
Particularly the Current team. They don't have any ability to win any matches and Bookies no need to Fix them, they will easily lose the match. It's very Simple so No match fixing
Re: I don't think Pak team involved in Match fixing

Current Pakistan team is not a patch on the great ones that they had in the 1970s or 1980s or 1990s. Where are the great Imran Khans or Wasim Akrams or Waqar Younis or Majid Khans or Asif Iqbals? They were players of stature and had the aura that intimidated the opposition? Can anyone match the fearless handsome Imran Khan in leading from the front and captaining with a rare brilliance? Can anyone bowl a magic spell like Wasim Akram and finish off the match within minutes? Inzamam had a presence that made him bring out results.
I believe the current turmoil in Pakistan and the lack of intl cricket there is contributing to the rapid fall out in their sports, let alone cricket.
You will find no proof. Because the deals is done under the cover and big parties involved, silently.
But the match results, performance of some players tells you everything.
One good example is - 2nd Test match between India and South Africa. The South africans who defeated India by an innings in the first test matches, completely lost their interest in 2nd test match and could take only 6 Indian wickets and lost the match with a massive defeat, only to secure that Team India stay at No. 1. In 2nd test the Lion Dale Steyn suddenly became a Lamb and stopped bowling his sizzlers.

Exactly. In cricket, particularly in Bi-lateral series, rich cricketing countries are using money power to buy matches as their sponsors have put a lot of money on the players.
Unfortunately our overfed cricketers (except Sachin of course) have proven to be worse than these corrupt Porkis! So we will do well to keep quite for some time.
Porkis may be throwing matches for money. But our players are overpaid and find playing quite bothersome!

Without proof how can we say it's very common. Making allegation is very common.
