Former Australia captain Mark Taylor says match-fixing in cricket is not new

Updated - 2/9/2010 - foxsports.com.

 

Mark Taylor was unfazed by the latest Pakistani match-fixing scandal and admits he has doubts about the Sydney Test Australia won so remarkably in January.

The former Australia captain has seen and heard it all before.

Almost from the moment he took over as skipper from Allan Border in 1994, Taylor was forced to confront cricket’s stench of corruption. It lingered through his reign.

Like a disease, Taylor believes it will be impossible to stamp out. The best cricket can do is control it.

"Unfortunately it’s a part of sport. It’s a part of all sport. It comes and goes. It happened in my time as a captain unfortunately. It’s a slur on the game," said Taylor.

Taylor made no effort to play down questions about the validity of Australia’s come-from-behind victory in the second Test at the SCG last summer.

"You certainly hope there wasn’t corruption involved. Those things cross your mind, there’s no doubt about that," he said.
