Now I understand that why Pakistan always loose matches (recently) against india in any big tournament (world cup etc.), although their(pakis) overall record is better than india, ofcourse it is due to betting they get money from match fixers, Indian bookies would pay any amount to see them losing as indian public (sic fans) would bet anything to win against pakis. Pakistan cricket and govt should punish the crooks, but i guess they won't as in pakistan top to bottom everyone is corrupt.
They have bunch of idiots, 3 idiots made headline ,there is always a problem with pak crickter either drugs , match fixing or pull each other leg,they should be banned permanently for any class of cricket, they spoil the image of cricket all over the world people are not intrested in there game .

if it was sponsorship money it would have been paid into their bank account and not given in cash. Do they think the ICC are fools to believe that. If it was sponsorship money the sponsor will be in a tax problem if he paid black money without a record in cash to a player. Pakka Patan brains.
The same ploy that they use for getting military and monetary aid from western countries is being used to defend the players. Pak has years of exp is playing this game. It would be interesting to see how it will all turn out in the end.
They were not knowing Majeed to be a fixer. He was supposedly an agent for them! Pakistani officials can cook quickly. But if well before the match he and the involved players knew which ball to should go as no ball, it is definatly fixing and players doing as per the script show they are not as ingnorant as claimed by PCB. This may be just a tip of an iceburg. May be Majeed would have roped in few batsman and fixed what score should they get out on. Shamless PCB and officals are backing the idea of innocence for players, who are beyond doubts tainted. I think this is bulling by pakistani's to get away and keep doing their way. Same way Murli was allowed to continue his illegal bowling all the time, soon you will have Paki's doing as they wish with future matches. Although the comparison with murli case is a bit streched, but I am quoting to just explain how the illegal activities can be supported , promoted and finally get to the stage of acceptence and rewaded.
