Southwark Crown Court hears that Majeed named 7 fixers in Pak team: Asif, Amir, Butt, K Akmal, U Akmal, Wahab and Imran Farhat

So 3 of them are still in the team. Looks like Pakistan have a quota for 3 fixers like England have a quota for South Africans and India for trundlers.

"Damning evidence" of Butt and Majeed attempting to fix no balls and a maiden over at the Oval Test in 2010, prosecution says #spotfixing trial: Asked if Salman Butt can be trusted as a fixer, Majeed said: "Salman is a million per cent. Trust me." #spotfixing trial: Asked if he's sure about Butt's fixing, Majeed answered: "Boss, believe me, he's done this many times". #Spotfixing: Majeed named 7 fixers in Pakistan team, court hears. Butt, Asif, Amir. Plus Umar Akmal, Kamran Akmal, Wahab Riaz, Imran Farhat

Team Strategy Meeting .. AKA planning how to lose matches featuring Butt and the Akmals -

[Cricket Tragic]

While detail was well chronicled at the time of the alleged offence, such as late night conversations and messaging between Butt and Majeed before the Oval Test match (which preceded Lord's), some detail that ensued from Jafferjee was not so well known: such as text messages between Amir and an unknown in Pakistan. "How much and what needs to be done?" said one message, read out by the prosecution. "This is going to be too much," said another message. The Pakistani unknown said in one: "So in first three, bowl however you want, and in the last two, do eight runs?" These messages were translated from Urdu, and were thought to be a repetition of instructions he had received at some point. At another time, Jafferjee told the jury how, when police were raiding the players' rooms at the Marriot Hotel on August 28, Amir contacted a number on a phone given to him by Azhar Majeed - Mazhar's older brother and business partner - and asked not to be contacted again and to erase all messages

Chuck them all in jail and throw away the key.

Amir should just come clean and take his ban on the chin, he will be back at 23 when most bowlers would probably just be starting their international career. The other two have no chance.

[VRV Singh]

The Akmals are involved? I am shocked.

The Akmals are involved? I am shocked.

Most probably

For Pakistan it'll be another blow if they lose Umar Akmal and Wahab Riaz as well.

Wahab, Umar & others are innocent, this is a BCCI conspiracy :hitler:
