My first instinct was Campbell.

If he was one of the comrades as it has been put, it would be covered up.

If it is Match fixing related, I am going to have to begrudgingly say a big ‘told you so’ as 90% of you thought I was paranoid for repeatedly saying it.
Yet I won’t get any joy from it.

That would be very illogical because that’s the one game the players would be hellbent on trying to win. You’d need the players to have been part of it in that instance.
It’s also too much spotlight.

If you match fix, it’ll be with player collusion and a team where they are either favourites to win or a small underdog, such as Holland, Bangla or Afg.

I also guarantee some of the poorer players have dabbled in the past.

The way these journalists are going on makes me steer away from all three.

He said this person was an inspiration for his generation in terms of wanting to be a cricketer, so that rules waller out. I also doubt he'd be so happy and rambunctious about the news breaking if it was one of the current big wigs. I highly doubt it was Chigumbura as he wasn't part of the set up in 2018 and was almost slipping into obscurity.
