29 players, including two Australia players are suspected to be involved in match fixing in IPL2 in South Africa, the top London newspaper claimed. According to a underground dossier compiled by the ICC's anti-corruption and security unit, the list includes some high-profile names but no one from England or Pakistan, whose players did not take part due to security issues, The Sunday Times claimed.
"Some betting patterns were very suspicious at IPL 2," the report said quoting a source. Despite long-standing concerns about the honor of the IPL, whose commissioner Lalit Modi is suspended amid sleaze allegations, England players are expected to be available for the entirety of next year's IPL for the 1st time.
Three Pakistan players Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir were suspended by the ICC for their suspected involvement in match-fixing in the Lord's Test and the trio returned to Pakistan recently.
