anurag. botham was the worst capt for eng. even his performance dipped on becoming his capt. in fact, relieved from captaincy, he improved n won 3 mom awards under capt mike brearly.

although cronje was a fixer, but he had guts to admit it. there r many shameless culprits, who r still playing intnl ckt. do u think a single player can fix the matches in team game? who else admitted even 1 % of fixing? hats off to cronje. in fact, he was the only one to admit n he was abt to disclose many more things which made him cost his life. really cronje is the most honest player.

Herschell Gibbs admitted to have received money. He comes to India only when Delhi police promises he will not be questioned.
For Jadeja and Azhar, mere allegations finishewd off their careers.

yes. nothing happened to akram, shane warne, mark waugh, alec stewart, murali, lara,etc. so many names come. fixing cant b done single handedly. in fact, shoaib akhtar was once quoted as saying that fixing shud b such that ppl doesnt know it n interest of the ppl is not affected.
