Today the International Cricket Council annouced the launching of an investigation into Friday's third one-day international between England and Pakistan at The Oval. The game's world governing body says the probe is based on information passed on by The Sun newspaper. ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat says the match, won by Pakistan by 23 runs, featured "a certain scoring pattern" that warranted further investigation. The ECB has been told that no England player is involved in the allegations.
The big question for me is how on enough do these tabloids continue to get these stories. After the stories in football, snooker and cricket recently I just can't believe people are still having this conversations with people they don't know about their sport and making arrangements wiht them.
