It did happen in County Cricket though.

it think most of us are sane enough to know it was happening a fair bit but know it's almost impossible to prove it. i would have thought he was wrong about the spot fixing stuff though - i mean isn't what Gibbs and the other guy were supposed to do spot fixing? that was what 99?

Pakistani ex-cricketers seem to take this allegation very seriously, saying the reaction of the BCCI and the Government to squash the alleged rumours as proof of 'different rules for different countries'.

More importantly, Ajay Maken, the Sports Minister of India, wants to conduct an inquiry into the matter, which is not surprising, since he wanted to bring the BCCI under the RTI.
