INDIA CORRUPT CRICKET
** FILE ** Australia's Shane Warne celebrates his 533rd wicket to pass the record held by Sri Lanka's Muralitharans in Madras, India, in this Oct. 15, 2004 file photo. Warne, the world's greatest spin bowler who has taken the most test wickets in the game, was banned for a year and had to pull out of Australia's team for the 2003 World Cup in South Africa after he tested positive for a banned diuretic, and Bob Woolmer's murder at the cricket World Cup illustrates how far removed the sport is from the sedate image that many people associate with the game. Modern-day professional cricket is plagued by doping scandals, match fixing, ball-tampering, cheating and riots. Police in Jamaica are trying to discover whether the strangling of Woolmer, the Pakistan team coach, in his hotel room was connected to the sleazy side of the sport. Over the past 15 years, cricket has become a target for gamblers and bookmakers, especially in Asia. Big money bets have led to a series of match-rigging cases. (AP Photo/Aman Sharma, File)
