<h1>Pakistan Cricket once Again Hit by Spot Fixing Scandal</h1><strong> Author: <a href='http://www.articleseen.com/profile_Zaira.aspx'>Zaira</a></strong><br /><p>Pakistan cricket is doing really well in terms of game. Still, there is a room that can be seen as humiliation for the Pakistan cricket, due to few cricketers that has been indulged into game fixing. In spite of taking so many remedial measures the spot fixing scandal seems to take high tide in Pakistan cricket. Coming on the reason that is might due to the changing culture of Pakistan or might be due to the unhealthy nourishment that is bred into the cricketers. On contrary, it can just be blame to de motivate the players to perform well in the near future. Previous skipper Salman Butt, 27, looked shocked as he expected a 30-month sentence at London's Southwark Crown Court, where he and fast bowler Mohammad Asif were found responsible of fixing parts of the August 2010 Lord's Test match against England. Asif, 28, was jailed for a year, while exceptional 19-year-old bowler Mohammad Aamer, who confessed participation in pre-arranging no-balls for vague South Asian betting rings, was sentenced to six months in a young wrongdoer society. Their British negotiator Mazhar Majeed, 36, who had also beseeched at fault, was given the greatest sentence. "It's no time to surrender. A beefed-up International Cricket Council (ICC) longer bans greater powers to investigate. The fight back starts now," it declared. Previous England captain and Times cricket correspondent Michael Atherton called Aamer's plight "tragic" and claimed all three custodial sentences "bordered on harsh". The previous opening batsman questioned what was to be gained in sending Aamer to London's notorious Feltham Young Offenders Institute, which, according to its latest inspection, was a place where 'fights between young people were frequent and vestiges of youth gang culture were inevitably imported'. "There are only sadness and the hope that, for Amir, redemption can be found," he concluded. The Telegraph's Paul Kelso echoed Atherton's concerns, calling it a "hollow victory" in the battle to clean up cricket. "So much of this case is singular that the prospect of three UK cells being filled by foreign cricketers can only be greeted with sadness," he wrote. These all scandals are not of much importance. Pakistan cricket board is working on the grounds to secure the position of the Pakistani cricketers. The new chairman is reforming the laws and regulations so that these scandals do not affect the overall image of Pakistan cricket. </p><strong>About the Author:</strong><br /><b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pcb.com.pk/">Pakistan cricket</a></b> has been once again hit by the spot fixing scandal. <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pcb.com.pk/">Pakistan Cricket Board</a></b> is working on the ground to resolve the issue and secure the image of Pakistan cricket associates.<p> Article Source: <a href='http://www.articleseen.com/Article_Pakistan-Cricket-once-Again-Hit-by-Spot-Fixing-Scandal_100248.aspx'> http://www.articleseen.com/Article_Pakistan Cricket once Again Hit by Spot Fixing Scandal_100248.aspx</a></p>
