Pakistan Cricket Scandal Could Be The Worst Match Fixing Scandal Of All-Time

British “newspaper” News of the World, has cracked open what could be the worst match fixing ring of all-time in all of professional sports history.

Posing as a high-roller, one of the NOTW’s reporters got on the inside and obtained absolutely crushing video evidence of the fixed events that occurred yesterday that the tipster correctly predicted.

In the video below, you see how he details what is going to happen and when it will happen.  Lo and behold, his predictions came true. He received £150,000 ($232,665) for his correct information.

The tipster, Mazhar Majeed, 35, was been arrested in England after police were shown the video evidence. The players accused in the scandal, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Asif, Salman Butt and Kamran Akmal are currently being investigated. Their cell phones were confiscated after the match.

This couldn’t come at a worse time for Pakistan, as they try to overcome the crippling ongoing natural disaster, disease and flooding.

Star bowlers Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif are the accused fixers, stepping over the line (no-balls) exactly when Majeed said they would.  Bettors can place money on occurances of events, like predicting no-balls.  It’s similar to predicting who will get the first holding penalty in the Super Bowl. 

The detail in which Majeed describes the racket is mind-blowing.  He must be a guy who loves to brag, because he broke it all down for the undercover reporter.

He covered the depth of his reaches, he bragged about being the players’ agent, he even claimed this has been going on for 2 1/2 years.  You really have to read the entire article to believe it.

Such damning evidence is really hard to dismiss.  Unless NOTW has pulled off the biggest prank we’ve seen in modern day media, it is going to be impossible for Cricket shake this stink anytime soon.
