According to me friends, playing for the nation must be the first dream of every cricketer.
As cricket god " Sachin " has rightly said that "do dream because dreams come true and that there is not a shortcut for success". So these things like match fixing and all that is a wall which can't be broken for those cricketers who are not honest and respectful for their nation. Every cricketer should follow the saying that "SERVE FOR THE PEOPLE, DIE FOR THE NATION AND LIVE LIKE A LEGEND".

Hello friends,
Yes cricketers is the only one who is responsible for match fixing, NOBODY CAN FORCE YOU TO DO EVIL, UNTIL YOU HAVE TRAPPED THE EVIL INSIDE YOU, once that evil comes out declination takes place, and the evil is "greed". When the greed of players comes before his game then outsider can easily influence him and buy him. So bookies are not the one to be blamed, its the player who are encouraging them and thus polluting the purity of game.
I saw KAPIL DEV was crying in the media, cause he was also blamed for fixing but later allegation were taken back and he resigned from the position of coach. Why all this took place just because of few pranks who were involved in fixing, they not only led the names of their team down but also of their family and their country.

Why not ? Even though they are getting millions, even though they have immense fans' support, they are still hungry. I can't understand them. They have struggled for years to gain a place in the team, they stood as the representatives of a historic nation. What more do they need to fell proud of themselves?
In my view, Match - fixing is something like selling our mother to someone as a slave. It's really shame upon their part. Because of such stupid malefactors, the entire team has to face severe criticism & bear many doubtful questions which pain the innocents.
Those who do Match Fixing should be treated as terrorists. On seeing the way, they are being humiliated, no other player should at-least think of Match Fixing. The BCCI should carefully watch the players and remove if there are any weeds in the team.

Yes, Cricketer's who are the responsible for match fixing. No one can force them to do this shame crime, they are doing this crime for their own happiness and money. Yes they are accused for this crime and they should be punished for this.

According to me...the cricketrs who r invlved in the match fxing must b punished or banned..i want to quote 1 line.."One dirty fish spoils the whole pond"..Bz of some malefactors the entire team has to face the cricism. Evry1 is excited about match while watching it....but f the match looses its authenticity then cricket match will soon lose its pride and people interest too...Soo i ll say BCCI should also keep the eyes on the cricketrs and should punish them i thid heinous offense is done..

Of course Cricketers should be blamed for Match fixing, because they are mature enough to take a decision. They did this match fixing to get so much money in shortcut. But they should be strictly punished for life ban and jail.
In INDIA people follow the game so deeply and this match fixing is one kind of cheating to those people and country. If one person fixing the match entire team have to suffer, because they can't concentrate on their future games and this decrease the level of performance.
RESPECT matters in life so much. So players should think about their performance and image and respect.

I think that there is no need to blame a cricketer for match fixing. As all of us know that nowadays some young cricketers are involved with the bookies for fixing.
At the starting point of any young cricketers life, they don't know 100% what is right and what is wrong. If he knows 100% then he doesn't need to take some advice from the seniors.
Actually, Bookies are eating the head of every young cricketer. They offered the young players a huge amount of money and that's why the young players used to enter into this trap.
The 1st person who should be blamed for Match Fixing is nothing but all system is responsible for this. After the System, the 2nd person who should be blamed for this is the bookies.
So, the conclusion is that we need to rectify our system.

Hello friends, I would like to be a part of this discussion.
Firstly, I agree with the topic that cricketer's should be blamed for match-fixing. This is because I feel that cricketer's up to their age are much matured. They know that fixing is not only the crime but also it decreases the reputation of the nation as well as the cricketer. So, I think despite of knowing this thing if a cricketer gets involved in the match fixing for money or say any reason. Then he/she should be blamed rightly.
