Dear the Editor of the Press Trust of India,
Really? The ICC are investigating Twats and me because we were a bit slow against Zimbabwe, are they? Oh, please. They aren't investigating us, we were just a bit shit that day. Well, Twats was anyway. Punter had told me to get my stuff together, so I was being extra careful, and Twats was ... well, yeah, he was just being rubbish. But he does that.
Trust me, he is not smart enough to even spell match fixing let alone actually do it. I'm not the brightest light in the tree myself, if I'm honest.
And what the hell did we fix anyway - our own win? In case you hadn't noticed, teams have a tendency to lose matches deliberately, not win them. Whoever tried to set it up did a fucked up job then, didn't they? They didn't even bother to get our bowlers on board. Clever.
Right, listen up, foreign media - we know you all want us to do badly in the world cup, but fuck off. We won the match against Zimbabwe, we won it by a mile and we're gonna keep doing it just to piss you all off even more.

If I was smarter I'd say something clever here
P.S. while you're making suggestions to the ICC, please report the possibility that India nearly lost to England the other day - that might have been deliberate, it was only England after all and they had nearly lost to the Dutch. Sounds like match-fixing to me, sunshine.
P.P.S. can you ask the ICC if Ricky can have his box back, please?

Ridiculous really. About fifteen years ago that would have been a typical start to an innings with 262 being a respectable score.
I have to agree that they're just out there to get the Aussies. Ponting's dressing room rant was one thing, creating news from thin air like this is just plain dumb.
Seems to be the norm to accuse other teams of it now.
Pakistan State News declared (not even an off the cuff comment by the sounds of it) that Jayawardene and Samaraweera threw their wickets away for cash.

I heard that, Craig. This tournament is starting to feel like it's being played by a bunch of bitchy schoolgirls.
Musings, we were once good and now we're slightly less good and fans of other teams love it and so we have these nothing news stories. I guess that's the price we pay, I just hope we can shut them up by doing well in India. I'm willing to pray - does that count as match fixing?
bitchy schoolgirls - (i.e.) like Aussie cricketers(Men's Cricket)?
Ever heard of spot fixing? Dont need to fix the result in those.
Logically, it is not impossible to fix a slow start. Although, you might have some Aussies Are Culturally Superior argument to which I have no answer. I do agree - Aussies are incapable of fixing, in a way that Sub continentals aren't. Now, that's a compelling argument. What you have put forth isnt.
... ooh, and speaking of bitchy schoolgirls ...
hasan, almost all of Sid's blogs point to the non-superiority - culturally - of the Aussies.
(Or at least of the cricket team.)
