	Your Price : Rs 424.15

A shocking expose of the corruption and match-fixing running rife through the world of cricket.

Over several years Ed Hawkins made friends with India`s bookmakers and the International Cricket Council anti-corruption officers who are trying to shut them down. He travelled to the country as he endeavoured to understand how the world`s largest unregulated gambling market operates. Bookies, fixers and gamblers showed him the tricks of their trade. He lived and worked with a bookmaker for a spell and will now never watch a match in the same way again. With a story featuring politicians, governing bodies, illegal bookmakers and players - and corruption, intimidation, even murder - this is surely the most important cricket book ever written.
