Former Pakistan captains Wasim Akram and Moin Khan Tuesday termed as “ridiculous” and “nonsense” allegations by the British sports agent that a number of Pakistani cricket greats, including them, were involved in match-fixing.
Agent Mazhar Majeed told the Southwark Crown Court in London on Monday that some of the biggest names in Pakistan cricket took part in fixing of matches. Majeed said: “It’s been happening for centuries. Wasim, Waqar, Ijaz Ahmed, Moin Khan, they all did it.”
“Such allegations are ridiculous,” Wasim said. “I did not even know the name Mazhar Majeed before the spot-fixing scandal exploded last year,” the legendary fast bowlers said.
Former Test wicketkeeper Moin Khan, like Wasim, said he had never heard of Mazhar during his playing days. “This man is talking nonsense. He is in a deep mess and wants to get out of it,” said Moin.
Butt, Asif and Pakistan teammate Mohammed Amir are accused of conspiring with Majeed to bowl no-balls deliberately in the Lord’s Test against England last August. Majeed and Amir have been charged with the same offences, but are not standing trial alongside Butt and Asif.

  2. MAZHAR MAJEED SB JHOOT BOL RAHA HAY AB IS KI BAT PAR KOI YAQEEN NAHI KAR SAKTA US NAY BOHAT BARAY BARAY PLAYAERS PAR ILZAM LAGAYA HAY. YA SARA BRITISH MEDIA KA KHEL HAY JIS NAY AB AUSTRALIA KO BHI NAHI BAKSHA HAY……

  3. Why only pakistani cricketers? Why aren’t they mentioning other players. The IPL is a complete scam. It was all over the media a few years back. Name the culprits over there too. Slap them a ban too.

  6. I am surprised they are calling it ‘nonsense’ and ‘ridiculous’. Its certainly not the first time their names have came up in such reports. All of them have a history of at least being accused, if not found guilty, of match fixing
