Does anyone feel like watching cricket again ? We were so passionately watching the various cricket matches, excited to the point of heart attacks and it pains to think that some of them were pre determined . It hurts to think that we are being taken for one helluva ride. UGH !!!!!!!!!!!
yES We still do have GENTLEMEN in the game and hopefully we will still be able to believe in the game.

England & Australian players Shyam get £400.000 P.A India and Pakistan get £12.000. P.A When you see this type of divide it lends itself to this type of behaviour. I am not in any way condoning this, just giving a reason why it can go on. ........Gerry.

Like Gerry i would agree with the obvious difference in money but i also think that putting yourself in the spotlight for money and completely ruining your reputation is just plain nuts
Cricket was always my first sport and having played at a fairly good level i can understand how a player can `throw` a match but to do it is still so wrong for the game and your home country i think that Pakistan should have cancelled the rest of their matches whilst this is being investigated there will always be the `stigma`now attached to pakistani teams in the future that there is a crook or two amongst them so sad for the game
