Are Cricketers to be blamed for Match Fixing?

Yes, the cricketers and only the cricketers have to be blamed for match fixing because they are doing this only for money. In any sports you have to stick to your ethics and these cricketers involved in fixing are compromising with their ethics, maligning their teams image also the image of that particular sports.

They must report it to higher authorities and help them in catching the fixers. If any cricketer is found guilty in match fixing, a very severe punishment must be given to him so that it gives a strong message to the young cricketers and they feel afraid even to think about match fixing.

According to me, everyone from a match fixing driver (bookie) to the cricketers, team officials and even refrees, who involve themselves in these fixing practices should be blamed.

But cricketers should be blamed first because they are the only and only acting members of the game, they had to play and if they do not get involved then nothing can be prefixed and these activities will turn towards abolishing stage but sometimes as we have seen that cricketers do not even report about the officials or other team members involved even if they know the facts and therefore they should be blamed.

Hi friend this is Rohit, before I go for some conclusion of the given topic, I want to say that we all know India has a huge population so definitely the people who reach to a stage where they are called cricketer is tough and challenging. There is no doubt they have quality and they are the real property of country.

If they involve in such type of thing like match fixing definitely BCCI should take step against the player but it will not be ultimate solution. We have to find the real root of the problem like some people who is spreading it catch them than it will come to an end.

Of course those who fixes match are criminals as they did a crime called fraud against audience. But punishment for this should be limited. As fraud is not a very big crime, so player should not be banned for his entire life. Sports is for entertainment and if a person does not follow the rules, he is actually cutting himself from this industry. He definitely pays for his activity whether or not, he is found guilty.

Management should look into the matter with care and stop possibilities of any such activities as it hampers industry but extent of punishment should be limited.

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. Match fixing should be banned. People soul raise their voices.

Of course those who fixes match are criminal as they did a crime called fraud against audience they haave struyggled for yeaers to gain a place team, they stood as the representatives of a historic nation. He definitely pays for his sctivity wdhether or not, he is founs guilty.

In my view, match fixing is something like selling our mother to domeone as slave. It's really shame upon their part. Because of such stupid malefactors, the entire team has to face severe cfitcism and bear many doubtful questions which pain the innocent.

Every game should be played with fair rules & honestly. Every player shall remember that playing Cricket honestly in his game is his prime responsibility fot nation. He shall play for his counrty as representative, not for money & if any cricketet is only thinking that He would be reach with Match fixing & doing so. He deserve for punishment for sure. Because its upto him whether to cheat with his game or not by doing match fixing, because doing match fixing which is illegal is not a way to make out great money.

One who stands for representing our country's reputation in world i.e. the cricketers, if they have sold their faith to be the money slave then it should be taken strictly. A man who has a huge no.of fans, reputation and also getting sufficient money for serving country so I don't think why they are starving for money.

As conclusion I think BCCI should have an idea at least about what is going on among player, they should form strict punishment for match fixing and cricketers should play for respect and dignity.

"Cricket is religion, Sachin is god" I have seen it in the video. So according to me,.

Match fixing is against the spirit of the game. Is just an give up before the start of play. Its the thing done for the money. As players struggle a lot to make their place in the team. Person watching the TV expecting a great game but due to such thing faith & belief on the game will be lost. Maturity of the player must be high while he is representing his own country. Player must be banned who is involved in fixing.

Yes I totally agree with this topic, players who do match fixing are mature enough to take any decision, they should be aware of the reputation of the nation and oh his as well. Match fixing deteriorate the reputation of oneself. Cricketers who are playing for the nation they have sufficient money for the survival of their on n for their families as well. Why do they go for match-fixing, they should be blamed for this unlawful act. There should be some strict laws against the players who do match fixing.
