the nazis invented jagermeister and fanta, doesn't mean we still need them
This is the Nazi dilemma in a nutshell for me.

Jagermeister and Hugo Boss uniforms on one hand, killing the Jewish people and inventing Fanta on the other. It's like the perfect balance between good and evil.

So having done some research, I guess it's clear that it's not just cricketers from these regions that are inclined towards corruption. This appears to indicate there may be some credence about what others have suggested about corruption being ingrained into the cultures of different geographic regions.
The ICC has been carrying out investigations on deep rooted corruption in Sri Lankan cricket but amid that, its Anti Corruption Unit official Alex Marshall revealed an alarming fact: most of the bookies indulging in corrupt practices are Indians.

Recently, ICC's ACU shared information about active corruptors with England and Sri Lankan cricketers, currently involved in a limited overs series.

Asked if all active corruptors are local, ICC's General Manager ACU, Marshall, told ESPN Cricinfo: "In Sri Lanka it was both local and Indian corruptors. In most other parts of the world it is mostly corrupt Indian bookies."

Marshall's revelations, even though alarming, is not surprising after Pakistan leg-spinner Danish Kaneria on Thursday admitted to spot-fixing, having taken money from an Indian bookmaker.

Even when the match fixing scandal broke in 2000, most of the corrupt bookies hanging around the players were believed to be of Indian origin."

I really don’t know why the ICC or anyone else would be surprised that most of the bookies involved are Indian. It’s the fact gambling is illegal in the most cricket mad country on earth which makes match fixing viable to begin with.

Yeah, this is what I mean about culturally ingrained corruption. It sounds like an entire system of laws etc. is essentially geared towards it.
