I was actually following the England/Pakistan test match on the Guardian's over-by-over commentary -- a harmless vice of mine -- and was thoroughly enjoying it. Especially the performance of the 18-year-old Pakistani prodigy, Mohammad Amir, who seems to be one of the principal cheats.

The whole idea of "spot fixing", i.e. betting on non-critical details within the game, is absurd, and should be banned.

The whole idea of professional sport is highly questionable of course... but a bit hard to ban.
