Sreesanth is contracted to the BCCI which he earns millions from , his contract is also worth $650k with the Royals this year...I suppose it throws the argument of "why would they risk such large amounts of cash for spot fixing" out the window.

Spot fixing is almost as bad as throwing the match, well, it directly influences it, so it is just as bad imo.

Where money is involved, greed and corruption is always behind it.

The spot fixing is nothing. The real massive money for the players is to be made in fixing the outcome of matches. Of which in my opinion there have been many in the IPL this season.

Sad situation and not what most including myself want. But its so complex and deep an issue, its so hard to stop.

I thought a gambler of your pedigree would have known the fix with your inside information that no one else can get. You are a fake, a big fat phoney.

lol typical loser gambler who makes assumptions.No dodgy contacts here, nore do I care to have any. Thats asking for trouble. My knowledge of fixing comes from the fact I&#x27;m an expert at reading body language.

[/Quote]Very minor correlation. Bowling a wide in a certain over, getting bowled first ball. Doesn&#x27;t determine the outcome or even come marginally close.

Davenz · Answer

Not really, just a small impact on the overall result

Rostos · Answer

How many 2020 games go into the last over? In a lot of these games 6-8 runs is huge at the end.
