In cricket or other famous sports, the name of match-fixing or the allegations of match-fixing against the players is not a new thing. But the name of spot-fixing has been heard only a few years back. It is said that by spot-fixing, no team or player affects the decision of the match, but still they earn money from the bookie. The latest examples are those of Sreesanth, Ankit Chavan and Ajit Chandila in the IPL, and the layers are yet to be uncovered in this matter.
It is said that with the changing times, the fixing has also changed. Since the people associated with this only mean to earn money, it is not necessary that it affects the result of the match, but something is done so that the snake also dies and the stick does not break. This is where spot fixing begins.
Suppose a team is Cricket batting well while playing first, and has scored 194 runs in 19 overs. Now it is obvious that everyone will expect that this team will comfortably cross the 200-run mark in 20 overs. Bookies make bets here whether the playing team will score 200 runs or not. So it is obvious that most people will bet that the team will score 200 runs. Now if spot-fixing has been done here, a message is sent to the cricketers playing in the field that they do not have to score 6 or more runs in the last over and as a result the batting team does not cross the 199 run mark. Thus a good score was also scored and this did not affect the result of the match immediately.
Apart from this, in spot-fixing, a player does certain things at a particular time in the match as per the bookie's instructions. For example, a bowler deliberately bowls a no ball or a wide in one of his overs, or a batsman does not score any runs in one of the overs or the captain takes some decisions on the field which have already been 'fixed'.
The relationship between IPL and spot-fixing first came to the fore in 2012 when a sting operation of a TV channel involved 5 players- T.P. Sudheendra, Mohnish Mishra, Amit Yadav, Shalabh Srivastava and Abhinav Bali had confessed to taking money in exchange for spot-fixing. After this BCCI banned all of them from all forms of cricket.
The biggest case of spot-fixing came to light in 2010 when three members of the Pakistan team that toured England - captain Salman Butt, fast bowler Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif were accused of being involved in spot-fixing. In a sting operation conducted by a newspaper, all three were found involved in spot-fixing and then had to face jail time.
Match-fixing is quite different from this, where players directly influence the decision of the match or a player deliberately performs below his potential to benefit the opposing team. When there is a fierce competition in the match, then even an important player can reverse the decision. Many a times, many players are involved in the quagmire of fixing, which affect the outcome of the match by showing 'synergy'.
Former Pakistani captain Salim Malik and fast bowler Ata-ur-Rehman have been banned for life for match-fixing, and Wasim Akram was also given a financial fine as well as the captaincy. Former India captain and Mohammad Azharuddin, Ajay Jadeja and Ajay Sharma have also faced sanctions for fixing.
But the biggest setback to the world due to fixing was in 2000 when Hansie Cronje, the then South African captain, admitted to having a relationship with the bookie. Cronje was considered one of the most honest players in the world, and died in an airplane crash shortly after being banned by the South African board.
Overall, it would not be wrong to say that betting is like an onion. The more layers you remove, the more layers will come out and along with the tears will come.
