Pakistan match fixing
You witnessed on of the most blatant acts of match fixing in the history of world sport today when the Pakistan cricket team threw the second test in Sydney. I understand that some of the Pakistani players may not be terribly wealthy but to deliberately bet on the opposing team to win and then go out and let Hussey / Siddle score run after run is DISGRACEFUL. It was so obvious it was embarrassing!
I demand the ICC investigate this obvious match fixing and punish all guilty parties namely the whole Pakistani team and support staff. They should pay a fine (each squad member $450 to me personally) and spend at least 5 years in jail.
The Pakistani wicket keeper (I can’t even be bothered looking up his name) was so deliberately dropping everything that came near him that I thought he had put a bet on himself to drop the most catches in a single test.
The only solace I took out of the game was the fact that Michael ‘thinks his poo don’t stink’ Clarke contributed NOTHING to the victory. He is the proverbial unused spare tyre that is just dragging down the fuel economy of the Australian cricket team. Time to leave him by the side of the road perched up against a mail box for dogs to use in the assistance of territory identification.
Good day.
Now you acuse them of cheating? You are a sore loser.
It is very suss.
IASM will know what is going on I’m sure.
Rob B, don’t be racist gainst SJ…..
Personally I dont think they cheated. I think they choked, much like Greg Norman used to at the British Open. Even if they did cheat, good on them for playing the system. I only wish there was some way I could go to work and make extra money just by throwing a few spreadsheet formula, or by dropping a few calculators.
I do feel sorry for you though SJ, you gave it a good go, thats for sure. Pakistan is up there with Ventracor in my opinion.
Greg Norman used to choke at the Marsters mainly
I reckon you are right but
