The "spot fixing" scam 
  The headlines are misleading -- CSK Official arrested in spot fixing scam. (Or actors investigated in spot fixing scam.) Which seems to give the impression of widespread match-fixing or spot-fixing corruption in the IPL and Bollywood. Actually, the CSK official has been arrested for making bets -- as gambling on cricket is illegal in India (but would not be in most other ICC Test nations), that is the offense. I would wager (that word again) that similar offenses could be found in officials from many other IPL teams and other industries (not just Bollywood).... more »

Rauf removed from IPL KO's 
  Say it ain't so, Joe? Disclaimer: Innocent until proven guilty. I hope this is all smoke sans fire. Rauf is rated as one of the best umpires around Actually, amidst all the match-fixing and spot-fixing, it always seemed to me that the easiest way to fix an outcome of a game in huge way, was to bribe the umpire. A single player, even a skipper, can only impact a game so much. An umpire, though, that is a completely different story -- he can have a much larger impact on the game given that he is on the field the entire duration of the match... And umpires make much less money than elite players as a rule...... more »
