I wont be surprised if someone as young as a Ravinder Jadeja or a Virat Kohli also makes similar statements on match/spot fixing. Our guys know where to draw the line. Afterall for women and food they have got benefactors like the Yuvis, Zaheers and Nehras in the team. Why would they need to get in touch with shady agents for that :--D. For money there's aways IPL.

Matches are fixed by individuals, has nothing to do with nation or cricket board, that is why individuals have to be punished which ICC has failed to do till now and doesn't like they will do much this time either.

Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh on Sunday said he has never been approached by a bookie in his career and would slap anybody who dares to approach him to fix games. "I will slap any bookie who will come near me, big time," said Harbhajan when asked what he will do in case a bookie approaches him to fix games. "I have never been approached by a bookie and I have not also seen these things happen in my career. I never feel that any one can do such things," he told NDTV at 'Walk the Talk' programme. He said it would be a "shame" if the 'spot-fixing' allegations against Pakistani players turned out to be true after the investigations. "I don't know the details of what happened in England. I read in the newspapers but I don't know how true are these allegations. Investigation is going on and let us see if these allegations are true or not," Harbhajan said. "When I play for my country I am very proud of representing my country. I don't know how people can do like this. It is a shame if these things are happening," he said. Harbhajan said if the allegations are true, harsh punishment should be handed to the players. "Well, as Imran Khan has said if these allegations are true there should be punishment to set an example so that it is not repeated. ICC and the (Pakistan) Cricket Board should take necessary steps," said the feisty Indian off-spinner. Reminded that his first captain Mohammad Azharuddin was banned by the Indian Cricket Board on match-fixing charges, Harbhajan simply said, "saja uske liye". "I don't know what happened then. I was young, in and out of the team. I don't know what they were doing at that time. If they were guilty 'saja uske liye'," he said. source
