Are Cricketers to be blamed for Match Fixing?

Yes, to a larger extent cricketers are to be blamed for match fixing and the same time the committee managing these players should not be spared.

These cricketers if they give their best on the field will surely get individual and team success and money will flow, at the same time they will be revered. Despite knowing all these, they involve themselves in these malpractices keeping aside their ethics and values and end up losing their career.

At the same time, the management should realise that these cricketers are on national duty and they should abide by the rules and stay within the discipline, at least when they are on duty. They should make sure the cricketers don`t meet anyone other than their family, team, and staffs when on duty.

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.

According to me not always these playing 11 are responsible for match fixing. Since nobody is born thief its the condition that make him to do wrong. There cricketing board do not provide enough money for there survival so they have to choose the wrong path of match fixing.

Yes, I am totally agree with this that cricketers must blame for match fixing. Because they are the representative of that country.

I am not commenting on their earning because they deserve that, but they have to think that if that country can give them a lot of love then they will not go back to hate them.

And according to my thought the cricketers who done this shameful work are liable to take punishment was banned for whole life and jail etc.

Yes, players are responsible for match fixing, they should be banned for forever, they just don't do a crime of taking bribe to make our India down, they break a billion hearts who always loved them, but they gave us a garland of betrayal. If they refuse to do it no one can make them to be a part of such type of criminal act. They shouldn't forget that money can buy everything except prestige and love which they get from us in serving the country.

Hello friends,

Yes cricketers is the only one who is responsible for match fixing, they must be punished or banned. Some malefactors the entire team has to face the criticism. Everyone is excited about match while watching it. But f the match loses its authenticity then cricket match will soon lose its pride and people interest too. So I'll say BCCI should also keep the eyes on the cricketers and should punish them. I this heinous offense is done.

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.

Absolutely yes. Matches cannot be fixed without players' consent. It doesn't matter if they are lured or even forced, if they are ready to sacrifice their country over money, they need to be punished.

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.

Hello friends,

According to my point of view it is yes. Cricketers are to be blamed for the match fixing because it does not matter who is behind the scene but it is players who commit mistakes on the field deliberately for the sake of money and betrays our trusts and also defames the name of our country on the international level. A player can prevent the match fixing to occur if he is determined to not let it happen by letting it know to higher authority if any other player from the opposite team or any other persons from outside approaches him for doing so which is unacceptable. Cricketers who come under the purview of match fixing must be forced to resign from all forms of the cricket and strict penalty and punishment must be enforced to stop these kinds of activities to happen in future.
