New Delhi: The issue of corruption and betting in cricket has been going on for a long time. Alex Marshall, chief of the International Cricket Council's (ICC) anti-corruption unit, has now made a big statement on the issue. Alex Marshall says that the entire focus of those who are corrupt in cricket is on the captain of the team, the corrupt build relationships with those who are close to the captain.
Talking to the press after the T20 World Cup, Alex Marshall said, "The corrupt like captains, openers and opening bowlers. Whoever is close to the captain, efforts are made to build a relationship with the captain through them''. Alex Marshall explained that the favorite format of the corrupt is the T20, where they aim from two overs to four overs. They do not focus on the results, no-balls or tosses of a match, but things are changed in the middle of the match. The corrupt have changed their thinking because now players are sharing such matters with us.
On how the corrupt interfere in the match, he said that these people somehow want to be close to the captain, by an old player, by the team manager, who knows the captain. More such efforts are made by corrupt franchise leagues. On the issue of corruption in Indian cricket, he said that since betting is not legal in India, it becomes difficult to catch such things here. They are more counted here, but you won't be able to see them.
