Come on M8, you can tell you've gotten into the political arena, the money could also quite easily have made it to fund lavish lifestyle for some, Or feed the homeless, but your inference or terrorist organisations makes the next link in this game of chinese whispers... money from illegal gambling rackets makes its way into the hands of Al Quaida or the Taliban.
I felt sick to my stomach upon reading that news. I love this game, and I am a true aficionado of the art form that is Test Cricket - with all its spellbinding changes of flow and the way it tests the players' character. But one feels like an idiot after knowing that the plays and errors that one was so carefully analyzing - and ascribing to game-plans and pressure situations - were fixed by some thug in a hotel room the day before.
Feeling really sad. Don't know if the game can recover :(

We can stop them using the drugs trade to finance murder, but stopping them using illegal gambling networks?

He's 18, and should have been mentored rather better. It seems his career is now over.
