For match fixing apparently...wonder who they are?
 

We were discussing who was the greatest ever sportsman in the pub before the Chelsea match and a couple of people suggested Mohammad Ali. I said Don Bradman. The counter argument was that only about 10-12 countries play cricket and at the time of Bradman there were only 4 or 5 who were at any standard.

Cricket is a niche sport, only understood and appreciated by a small percentage of the worlds sports fans. The last thing we need is another match fixing incident.
 
They were named on the news here. One of them has left his post with Sky today if you want to google it. Probably not a surprise given previous court case in the UK[DOUBLEPOST=1386303636][/DOUBLEPOST]

It is just about possible Ali was in the pub before the Chelsea match, but Bradman was your imagination working overtime.[DOUBLEPOST=1386470813][/DOUBLEPOST]Is it odd that NZ could only manage 79 off 30 overs when chasing 112 for victory, after scoring 600 off 150 in the first innings? What was going on there?
