What Sachin, Dhoni And Dravid Said About The Match Fixing Scandal?

Sachin Tendulkar :

"ICC should make a thorough probe in the 'spot-fixing' scandal and take appropriate action if the players are found guilty.If the allegations are true, they will certainly bring disrepute to the game," Tendulkar said.

"In my 21 year of international cricket, I have never heard of an Indian player being approached by bookies," Sacin said.

"Yes.It doesn't leave a good impression about cricket and cricketers. It is something one would like to erase and make sure cricket heads in the right direction so that it helps cricket to grow across the globe," Tendulkar said.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni:

"It is crucial to keep the game clean.Personally I think it is up to the individual. You don't need someone to guide you or restrict you. If you are playing for, or representing, your country you should feel pride in doing that.",Dhoni said.

"As far as the corruption unit and their functioning are concerned I think that they are doing a good job,I think that if they (ACSU) become stricter they will start intruding on the privacy of players."

Rahul Dravid:

"The last thing we need is for the events of this week to be swept under the carpet. No guilt must be attached until the investigations are complete, and everyone deserves a fair chance to defend themselves. But the process must be thorough and comprehensive," Dravid said.

"Proper inquiry carried out by investigators with the law of the land behind them,  It (scandal) has been a horrible scar on cricket, cricketers and fans."

"The most necessary outcome would be swift and strong punishment to anyone found guilty. In the past, people once judged guilty turned up after a few months just because time had passed. It was as if everyone had forgotten what days like these feel like for the majority of honest players in the game," Dravid said.

"No one wants to be under watch all the time. I hate that there are cops and security on our floor in every hotel the team lives in, but that is what the game requires," Dravid said.About ICC's Anti-Corruption Code, he said, "It's not just about the right rules being laid down but also ensuring that people who break those rules pay the penalties and face the consequences."
