Karachi: Former Pakistan captain Moin Khan has lashed out at ex-chief of ICC anti-corruption unit Paul Condon for stating that ACU was aware that in the 90s and in the following years all of cricket’s leading countries were involved in fixing major matches.

“I don’t understand the purpose of his statement now. If the ACU knew that fixing was so widespread what action did they take to bring guilty teams or players to book after the ACU was formed in 2000,” questioned Moin.

Moin, who now runs his own cricket academy in Karachi, said he was surprised by Condon’s statement but said in a way it was good for Pakistan.

Condon in a fresh interview said not just Pakistan but other countries were involved in fixing.

“In the late 1990s, Test and World Cup matches were being routinely fixed,” Condon, the founding head of the ICC anti-corruption unit, said in an interview with London Evening Standard.

He also spoke about how a Pakistani player who went to England on ACU expenses at the last moment refused to give evidence or unmask those involved in fixing.

“What I want to know is that if fixing was rampant in the 90s and later on like Condon says what did the ACU do.”

Moin said he was not surprised at learning about a player backing out of giving testimony and evidence because of fear to his family’s life. (PTI)
