I don’t know whether the IPL is corrupt.

But what I do know is that an auction-based payment structure is the perfect design to allow, even encourage, corruption.

And the corruption could be in a completely separate tournament.

Imagine that I am a corrupt match fixer, and I have corrupted the legendary Canadian all-rounder Edward McGregor..

How is McGregor going to launder his corrupt payments?

Maybe by being on lucrative T20 contracts from Worcester Walnuts, Sydney Savages, Calcutta Chipmonks and Karachi Klingons.

The T20 auction system basically makes it easy to disguise corrupt payments as legitimate salary.

Copy and pasted from PP by the legendary poster Junaids.

Google Ajit Chandila, Ankit Cheevan, Sreesanth.
That happened in 2013 when fixing wasn't that deep. Since then at least 20 players got banned but not even a single of them is Indian. Either ACU of BCCI is really strong or they are making fool out of the cricketing world.

Ah, you frequent PP. Explains a lot.
I am frequent on PP doesn't mean I agree with most of the BS being sad there but IPL is corrupt. It's as clear as a blue sky. To claim that its fair is a slap on the intellect of cricket fans.

Disagree.
Premeditated ball tampering (what steve smith did and forced younger player to do) is on the same level as lance armstrong drug cheating to me.
What Aamir did is minor, he spot fixed a no-ball. pretty meaningless.

Full on match fixing is bad, very bad. But I still place it as less evil than what steve smith and warner did.
so much ignorance in one post unreal
