SPOT FIXING: AN UGLY SIDE OF MODERN CRICKET

The purpose of the present study is to highlight the spot fixing in cricket. Spotfixing refers to illegal activity in a sport where a specific part of a game is fixed. Spotfixing attempts to defraud bookmakers illegally by means of a player agreeing to perform to order by pre-arrangement. Spot fixing and match fixing have done huge damage to the game spirit of cricket. International Cricket Council (ICC) and all state cricket association should come forward to tackle such issues amicably. It is highly expected from individual players to play the game with its true spirit and honesty in order to maintain the faith and glory of this gentlemen's game.
