Match Fixing and Organized Crime

Interesting new book about sports betting and match fixing:

A much wider net
Saad Shafqat InpaperMagzine

Given the recent spot-fixing setbacks, you would think the whole mess of cricket corruption is centred in Pakistan, but in fact the problem is much wider. This does not minimise the culpability of Pakistan’s errant cricketers. But it is important to understand the true scope of the wider tragedy that is eroding the spirit of this beloved game.

It is instructive to see the various corrupt behaviours of different teams displayed side by side on the same canvas.
