Rajan Nayer, HMCA MD, suspended over fixing charges

A former Zimbabwe Cricket Board Official, Rajan Nayer, has been charged with three counts of breaching the ICC Anti-Corruption Code. Nayer has been charged for 'being party to an effort to fix', 'offering a player US $30,000 to fix' and 'directly solicited, induced, enticed or encouraged a player' for fixing. Nayer has been provisionally suspended with immediate effect.

The incident in question arose late last year when Zimbabwe captain Graeme Cremer reported an approach by a then unnamed official who had attempted to influence the results of the Test series between Zimbabwe and Windies. Cremer had subsequently taken it up with his coach Heath Streak before the matter was elevated to the ICC.

The results of the ICC's investigation have now revealed Nayer to be guilty of the charges and he will have 14 days from January 16, 2018 to respond to the charges.

As well as serving on the ZC board in the 2000s, Nayer was a well-respected administrator in Harare cricket circles. He was the Treasurer and Marketing Director of the Harare Metropolitan Cricket Association prior to his suspension.

Just wondering, how do you prove something like this?

Cremer: ‘this Indian dude wants me to fix games’

ICC (to Nayer): ‘this true?’

Nayer: ‘nah nigga, he trippin, just hatin’ on the Hindus is all’
