Wjk, there was a good review of this on Radio 4 this morning. The presenter said that it was easy to see how Pakistani cricketers could get lured into match-fixing. They get paid a pittance compared to other internationals and they are living in the world of 5 star hotels, seeing big money. Then they get offered huge amounts in brown envelopes and go for it.

There could be a lot of 'ball tampering' going on in the showers at Belmarsh now........

Lioned!
