why match fixing is IMPORTANT ? (serious, no joke)
.
Lets say match between Pune and Mumbai was NOT fixed
.
And say Mumbai wins or loses in 50 balls before end
.
Then match would NOT have been interesting at all.
.
To make the match interesting, it was necessary to give it a swing (first make it appear that one team will lose and then that team wins) and take the match to last ball, and make last ball switch the result !!
.
All this needs very careful match fixing
.
So match fixing is must. Thats why I NEVER opposed match fixing.
.
As per proof that matches are fixed, try first getting proofs that World Wrestling Enterprise matches are fixed or not.

Is match fixing unethical? We all know movies are fixed. The dialogues are fixed. In a movie, it is decided before hand who will win and who will lose and so on. So are movies unethical?
.
Fixing doesnt make things unethical.
,.
Just like movies, the cricket matches are fixed to make matches more interesting. It is business
.

.
What about fooling people? Well, are those movies getting fooled becuse movies are fixed? So why should audience be fooled if matches are fixed?
.
All in all, match fixing improve entertainment level in game by taking match to last ball and giving twists and turns in the "plot". So I support match fixing

Are WWE - wordl wrestling enterprise matches fixed? If fixed , then is that unethical?
.
First of all, WWE matches are all 100% genuine and never fixed. No one till date has proved that WWE matches are fixed. So they are NOT fixed. But many believe that these WWE matches are fixed !! So my question is --- if WWE matches are fixed, is it unethical? NO? Then why should fixing of world cup cricket be taken as unethical?

Someone can come and say - "well, I didnt know that movies are supposed to be fixed !!! And yet actors etc had fixed the actions in movies. Hence actors etc are unethical !!". Then my and your answer to THAT person would would be "no, actors are NOT unethical - YOU (you = that person) need to improve information level and know that movies are suppoed to be fixed".
.
Same way, my answer to all watchers of cricket and other sports is "YOU all need to improve your information level and you should KNOW that all matches in cricket and all sports are supposed to be fixed". Just because audience doesnt know that matches are always pre-fixed, doesnt make match fixing unethical.
.
If someone thinks that cricket matches were fixed since 1900s , then he needs to grow up, wake up etc. Cricketers cant stop match fixing just because some naive people think that matches arent fixed

Many moons ago, Romans saw that gladiators were fixing matches !!! So Ramans made an UNPRINTED DEFACTO law - that the winner gladiator must physically actually KILL the losing gladiators !!! And winner doesnt kill the losing gladiator, then the stadium guards will kill the winner !!! Romans could NOT discover a better method to stop gladiator match fixing.
.
So yes, if you want match fixing to end, pls make a law --- be printed law or unprinted law --- that winning team MUST kill losing team !! I will oppose such law. And era of unprinted law is now over. So you will have to PRINT such law if you want such law. Are you willing to print such law? I am not.
.

.
Another way to end match fixing can be -- after match ends, you can narcotest players in public. Again, I would oppose such law. I support narcotest for serious crimes and match fixing is NOT even a crime, forget serious crimes

We should protect wealth of all and also insure wealth of all. If someone loses wealth, society should punish the thief and work to compensate the person who lost his wealth.
.
But say a person keeps money in garden and goes for a walk. and then comes back after 1 hour, and sees that money is gone, Now should scoiety compensate loss of such careless person? and should we really call that thief a thief like athief who breaks into house and steals money? And what do do if a person does same thing again and again and again? i.e. he leaves money in garden and goes for a walk. He sees his money gone, cries, and then next day , he comes and again leaves money in garden and goes for a walk !!! And he does that again and again and again, How long will YOU feel sorry for loss of such a person?
.
If match fixers have cheated audience, then audience is like people who leave money in garden and then go for a walk again and again and again, There is a limit to one's repeated carelessness beyond which one cant be protected. The audience should grow up , wake up etc and see that there s 100 times more money in match fixing than real play. So any normal human will be tempted to fix matches. And so they should know that ALL matches since 1901 are fixed, and they will be fixed for a long time to come.
