I dont agree with Shah Rukh Khan's comment that betting will continue in cricket for what ever reason he says. There is a difference here i.e. betting between two private people betting and another the BCCI supporting the franchises or their relatives betting.The former is a private affair.but the latter is a dangerous affairs because the whole of India is interested that includes the young and the promising would be cricketers.In my opinion the board should be above suspicions first only then large scale betting will stop.Secondly if severe punishment is given to the players who are at the bottom of this then why would betting be there at all? For Example when we have Dravid and Kumble as shining examples of honesty betting can be avoided in Cricket.Only that we should remove any arrogant chairman of the board and then the millions of cricket lovers in India can enjoy for ever betting free cricket.

I am one of the biggest SRK hater but I agree with him. Like scams in the stock market, match fixing will also continue. people devise new ways to deal with the enhanced rules. Regulators are coming with regulations in the financial markets but in few years, there will be a new type of scam. Similarly, there will be a new type of fixing. Having anti-virus for last 15 years has not stopped new viruses from coming in the computer industry.
It is a matter of shame that’s our one celebrety recomnnded it for future while it happens in past. Who is main benifisry of this spot fixing? It is planned loot by organigers. If they are not capable then must stop this type of activities which make rich to organigsers or some certain persons by making the nincompooph to public through selling the tickets and advertiements. India Government must stop this crime played publicly in the country and think how to stop or minimise any crime in the country. Solution is exits but needs to implemnet it.
all the matches in IPL are fixed, and mostly knows everyone about the results and always enjoy the atmosphare. :-) i watched only the first two season of it, bcz at this time i couldnt believe that the matches are fixed. :-) thanks SRK, you are a real hero to say the truth in front of media.
Do we also see sleaze , drugs , and many more exciting things too after money is disbursed or before fixing toooo. Pl elaborate that too. Lets all do Pants down to understand fixing tooo pl .
