But what's the difference if there was no one at a cricket game and the "fixers" were located in another country? The bowler can still bowl a no ball on the 4th delivery and they clean up. It doesn't make sense. It shouldn't matter if you at a game or not. Either you are allowed to bet in-play or you're not. Simples!
And another thing, when are we (in Australia) going to be able to bet in-play on anything other than racing? I reckon I know my AFL pretty well and wouldn't mind betting in play with that sport (at the ground or not).
