Tim Wall, Leon Pliester, and the players CHESSBASE OPERATOR: MARK HOUL5BY EDITOR 1ST NORTHUMBRIAN MASTERS The Chillingham, Newcastle upon Tyne 28 August - 1 September 1996 After the successful all-play-alls and Scheveningen team events held in Newcastle over the past year, I felt it was time to hold a bigger Swiss event which aimed to give opportunities to a broader group of players. Not knowing quite what sort of response to expect, I was very pleased when we attracted 40 players from 8 different countries, including International Masters Leon Pliester (Netherlands), Steffen Pedersen (Denmark), Douglas Bryson and Jonathan Rowson (Scotland), Graeme Buckley and Andrew Whiteley (England) as well as English IM Elect Simon Ansell. In the end, out of the various contenders, two players stood out by their consistency and professional approach: Leon Pliester, in contrast to some of the other faltering IMs, kept himself at the top of the table and didn't look back. From the moment he arrived at Newcastle Airport and took out his laptop, Leon was a picture of concentration throughout, clearly relishing the challenge and getting a well-deserved tournament victory. In second place was young Londoner Danny Gormally (19), registering his first IM norm (with half a point to spare!), who demonstrated quick thinking and alevel-headed approach that augurs well for the future.

Cobbling Together the Dream Indian Eleven
COBBLING TOGETHER THE DREAM INDIAN ELEVEN Whenever the five selectors, often dubbed as the five wise men with the onerous responsibility of cobbling together the best players comprising India’s test cricket team, sit together to pick the team they feel the heat of the country’s collective gaze resting on them. Choosing India’s cricket team is one of the most difficult tasks as the final squad is subjected to intense scrutiny by anybody and everybody. Generally the point veers round to questions such as why batsman A was not picked or bowler B was dropped from the team. That also makes it a very pleasurable hobby for followers of the game who have their own views as to who should make the final 15 or 16 when the team is preparing to leave our shores on an away visit or gearing up to face an opposition on a tour of our country. Arm chair critics apart, sports writers find it an enjoyable professional duty when they sit down to select their own team as newspapers speculate on the composition of the squad pointing out why somebody should be in the team at the expense of another. The reports generally appear on the sports pages on the morning of the team selection. This has been a hobby with this writer for over four decades now and once the team is announced, you are either vindicated or amused. And when the player, who was not in your frame goes on to play a stellar role for the country, you inwardly congratulate the selectors for their foresight and knowledge.

Justice Qayyum's Report
PART I BACKGROUND TO INQUIRY 1. Cricket has always put itself forth as a gentleman’s game. However, this aspect of the game has come under strain time and again, sadly with increasing regularity. From BodyLine to Trevor Chappel bowling under-arm, from sledging to ball tampering, instances of gamesmanship have been on the rise. Instances of sportsmanship like Courtney Walsh refusing to run out a Pakistani batsman for backing up too soon in a crucial match of the 1987 World Cup; Imran Khan, as Captain calling back his counterpart Kris Srikanth to bat again after the latter was annoyed with the decision of the umpire; batsmen like Majid Khan walking if they knew they were out; are becoming rarer yet. Now, with the massive influx of money and sheer increase in number of matches played, cricket has become big business. Now like other sports before it (Baseball (the Chicago ‘Black-Sox’ against the Cincinnati Reds in the 1919 World Series), Football (allegations against Bruce Grobelar; lights going out at the Valley, home of Charlton Football club)) Cricket Inquiry Report Page 1 Cricket faces the threat of match-fixing, the most serious threat the game has faced in its life. 2. Match-fixing is an international threat. It is quite possibly an international reality too. Donald Topley, a former county cricketer, wrote in the Sunday Mirror in 1994 that in a county match between Essex and Lancashire in 1991 Season, both the teams were heavily paid to fix the match. Time and again, former and present cricketers (e.g. Manoj Prabhakar going into pre-mature retirement and alleging match-fixing against the Indian team; the Indian Team refusing to play against Pakistan at Sharjah after their loss in the Wills Trophy 1991 claiming matches there were fixed) accused different teams of match-fixing.
