ST LUCIA: Two consecutive wins for minnow Zimbabwe against defending Twenty20 Champion Pakistan and mighty Australia have raised many eyebrows about the mega event or the world champion has maintained its trademark style of displaying unexpected performances in the warm-up match.
On one hand, Zimbabwe, which is being considered a weak team, has doubled the interest of fans in the tournament, while on the other hand, it has created doubts of match fixing.
During the recently concluded IPL tournament, reports of match fixing allegations and financial irregularities got headlines. This has also increased fears about the Caribbean event too.
The way Zimbabwe has defeated Pakistan and Australia shows that something is fishy.
In the wake of match fixing threat, the International Cricket Council has alerted its anti-corruption unit to keep a vigil on every player.
