Cronje : ya dry and good for batting
Bookie : I want u to loose today's match

Bookie : I will pay u $25000
Cronje : still it is a tough ask or u tell by what margin we should
in that will be much more easier
Bookie : no india should win
Cronje : ok. I will try my best
Bookie : no make it.
Cronje : ok.
Bookie : what will be the score
Cronje : 300
Bookie : if u bat first
Cronje : yes
Bookie : no make it 220
Cronje : impossible. Agarkar and joshi are playing. Very difficult
to play badly.
Bookie : 220 no change.
Cronje : I will try
Bookie : ok. If india bat first
Cronje : 180
Bookie : no make it 275
Cronje : no u are asking too much. Dravid is playing.
Bookie : ok make it $30000
Cronje : I think this is going to be very tough match in my life
time
Bookie : ok, deal is made.
Cronje : yes
Bookie : bye.
Match starts india bats first. India score only 220 in 50 overs.
during the lunch break hansie's cell rings.
Cronje : hello
Bookie : its me. why did india score only 220.
Cronje : what can I do. All six balls they scoring two runs and
four balls only one run and full toss balls they are
defending.
Bookie : still u should have played badly.
Cronje : I asked all my bowlers to bowl badly. I also asked kirsten
and gibbs to bowl. Still they didn't hit them. What can I
do.
Bookie : ok. Forget it. I want u to loose the match.
Cronje : I will try.
Bookie : make only 180
Cronje : ok.
Bookie : bye.
S. Africa bats. They play really badly. They try to run only 1's
for 2's. but since indians were fielding they cant stop themselves
from
running 2's. indians drop 6 catches. All south Africans charged down
to
joshi's
bowling and they purposely miss the ball, but they got to run a bye
for
that because Dighe was searching for the ball behind the stumps.
Inspite
of bad
display of batting they score 218 of 49 overs. Last over 3 runs
required
the worst part is agarkar is bowling. Hansie is still batting with
strydom.
Bookie gets really furious. hansie is ready to face the last over his
cell
rings.
Cronje : hello
Bookie : its me. I told u so many times why did u do like this.
Cronje : what can I do. I tried my level best and I made it very
obvious also.
Bookie : ok forget it. I want u to loose the match atleast now.
Cronje : what can I do. Our fate, agarkar is bowling
Bookie : I don't know u are loosing
Meanwhile Agarkar bowls hansie try's to hide his bat behind his
back. But the ball hits the bat and goes to third man. so they take a
single.
Cronje : sorry what can I do I was hiding my bat but still the ball
comes and hit my bat. If I play much worse than this
everybody will find
out.
Bookie : (gets really tensed). Ok I can understand. But please
don't take last two runs.
Hansie speaks to strydom and tells him not to take a single.
Agarkar bowls a juicy full toss. Strydom uses all his batting skills
and
restricts
it to a single. Scores are level
Bookie : ok. Past is past. Atleast finish it in a tie. I don't know
what u are going to do u are not taking a single or u give
u'r bat to the
umpire.
Cronje : ok. Ok. Don't worry this time I will see to it we are not
taking the single. Let it be obvious also. I am not taking
the single.
Agarkar bowls, unfortunately he bowls a no ball. S. Africa wins the
match.
Bookie goes mad and Cronje faints in the field itself.
Moral : indians doesn't have the necessity to fix the match. They
are pure.
