Despite the deep disillusionment which has set in with regards to corrupt practices in sports, it was sickening to watch the sting operation done by a British tabloid on the Pakistani players. It is a most implicating evidence, and I do not know how these players had the guts to play the last day of the Test and look people in the eye. Right from the days of Hansie Cronje, Mohd. Azharuddin, and Ajay Jadeja when match fixing came to limelight, and these players lost their careers and credibility, cricket has been tainted.
With big money pouring into cricket and greed driving the cricketers to sink deeper into muck, anything is possible. I believe any cricketer can be bought if your quote is right. That is the amount of skepticism setting in for this game which was once so amazing to watch. Who knows, why a certain game is so exciting anymore. There will always be a shadow of doubt falling on a match.
It is cricket’s big day of shame, and I will never understand how players can be so callous about sullying their country’s name. Shame on you guys! You have brought disgrace to your country’s name and done a lot of damage to cricket’s reputation on the whole.
I am waiting to see the investigations unfold, and how these guys would be held accountable?
