In [[cricket]], |
In [[cricket]], match fixing occurs as a match is played to a completely or partially pre-determined result, violating the rules of the game and often the law. In particular, players have been approached by [[Bookmaker|bookmakers]] and bribed to throw matches or aspects of matches (such as the toss), or provide other essential information. Fixing has happened in both international - including [[Test cricket|Test matches]] and [[One Day International]]s - and domestic cricket. Banning a cricketer from playing cricket for varying durations may be one of the penalties for those found guilty of match-fixing charges. Such a ban is issued by the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC), the sport's governing body, or by the respective cricket board to which the offending player belongs. A ban may be for [[match fixing]] or [[spot-fixing]]. Both are misdemeanours banned under the [[ICC Cricket Code of Conduct]]. |
