'Match Fixing was at its peak in the 90s', Rashid Latif set to expose Pakistan Cricket in his book
Pakistan National Cricket Team: Former Pakistani skipper Rashid Latif has made a sensational claim that he's going to expose the dark secrets of match-fixing. He claimed that he will expose everything about the period when match-fixing was at its peak. Latif played for the Pakistan Men's National Team from 1992 to 2003 in his career.
He is going to expose everything related to Pakistan match fixing history in his upcoming book and also went on to say that those players who were involved in match fixing should not be a part of Pakistan Cricket.
What did Latif say?
"I've begun working on the book. In the 1990s, the fixing of matches was it's peak. I'll tell you everything, including how the fixing procedure occurred and who was involved. I will tell what happened in the cricket of the 1990s and will also tell which former captain requested pardon from the President", Latif said as quoted by The Current PK
Was Pakistan cricket ruined?
In the 'Harna Mana Hai' broadcast on Geo News, the 56-year-old had also singled out a few former players without revealing their identities. He claimed that because the players of the 1990s didn't spare Pakistan cricket, it took the team 17 long years to lift the world Cup Trophy for the second time
"The current players will only attempt to win games if the players of the 1990s are kept apart from the squad and team management. I'm from the 1990s, too. They have been serving Pakistan Cricket for a very long duration. Thus, I believe it'stime for them to take some rest.
Pakistan Cricket Team is being ridiculed
At present, the Pakistan Cricket Team is being ridiculed all over the world. After a long gap of 29 years, the nation got the chance to host an ICC tournament and they made elaborate preparations for it, but the players failed to live upto the expectations of the fans.
The host team did not last even a week in the tournament. Pakistan's arch rival India won the title by defeating New Zealand, after which there is a stir in Pakistan cricket.
