I read an interesting article on Sachin Tendulkar.
It lists hundred facts about Sachin Tendulkar and it is quite comprehensive.
In fact it is Sachin Tendulkar in a nutshell, though one can not catch his spirit, which has to be observed to be believed, be it being a Team Man,Patience,Composure,
Calmness,Sobriety,respect for elders, encouraging others,his Humility.
Here is an excerpt.
In a Cricket match, when two teams play or in a league match, the outcome of the match is predetermined and bets are placed on the teams .
Then money changes hands based on the outcome of the match.
Mohammed Azharuddin, The Fixer of Cricket Matches, India.
This is not legalized.
The primary mover of the system, usually the Underworld,operates through persons who accept the bets called 'Bookies'
They get in touch with the players, offer them money and induce them to throw away the match,either by tactics or selection of players.
Apart from this,there is another system which is called 'spot fixing'
Here the outcome of the Match is not altered, but the components of the game, especially Bowling is manipulated' like giving away 'wides',bowling 'No Balls".
