Pakistan Cricket Scandal: Match-fixer pockets £150k as he rigs England Test at Lord's!!!!! (Including Released Video)
Watch This Video:
In the most sensational sporting scandal ever, bowlers Mohammad Amir and
Mohammad Asif delivered THREE blatant no-balls to order.
Their London-based fixer Mazhar Majeed, who let us in on the betting scam for
£150,000, crowed "this is no coincidence" before the bent duo made duff
deliveries at PRECISELY the moments promised to The News Of The World Reporter.
Armed with The News Of The World Reporter's damning dossier of video evidence, Scotland Yard launched their own probe into the scandal.
Last night three players - captain Salman Butt, and bowlers Amir and Asif hade
their mobile phones seized by officers.
Pakistani cricketers Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir, amongst some of
the others, have come under the match-fixing scanner in the fourth and
the final Test match of the Pakistan-England series at Lord’s. According
to a sting operation conducted by a British newspaper, Mazhar Majeed,
an alleged match-fixer is said to have claimed to know most of the
Pakistani side, and accepted money on the players’ behalf.
The sting operation shows a video of Majeed accepting 10,000 pounds and
140,000 on two separate occasions from the news sting operator, in
return for having the bowlers bowl a couple of no-balls in the game.
This sub-plot in a game is often termed as spot-fixing, in which the
game’s is not fixed, but only a few incidents within the match are
fixed.
In this case, Majeed was shown to be speaking to the sting reporter and
explaining that the bowlers will bowl a no-ball off the first ball of
the third over and the sixth ball of the tenth over of the English
innings. That is exactly how it had panned out as Amir bowled a huge
no-ball off the first ball of the third over, while Asif repeated the
same in the tenth over. What was interesting was that the no-ball that
Amir bowled was so big that it was almost difficult to believe.
It was also revealed that apart from Asif and Amir, the other Pakistani cricketers who were allegedly involved were captain Salman Butt, Wahab Riaz, Umar Amin and Kaman Akmal.
These allegations were revealed at the end of the third day of the fourth Test match, and while the fourth day of the Test match continued, the mood at the Mecca of cricket, the Lord’s, was rather morose. England went on to win the Test match, but the Pakistan team was not seen warming up before the start of the day and nor did they attend the post match presentation. Only Amir, who was declared the man of the series was present.
