Hameed: They're doing it 'almost every match'

The News of the World has issued further match-fixing allegations against Pakistan, with Test opener Yasir Hameed reportedly admitting some of his team-mates were involved in throwing games.
The newspaper rocked the cricket world with their spot-fixing claims last weekend - with Salman Butt,Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir now the subject of police and ICC investigations.
They have now followed up with an interview with Hameed, who played in the fourth Test at The Oval.
He is quoted as saying: "They've been caught. Only the ones that get caught are branded crooks.
"They were doing it (fixing) in almost every match. God knows what they were up to. Scotland Yard was after them for ages.
"It makes me angry because I'm playing my best and they are trying to lose."
The full details of the latest claims will be released over the course of the night, but the paper also claim that the ICC are currently investigating a fourth - as yet unnamed - Pakistan player.
Sunday's edition will also carry allegations that investigators recovered at least £10,000 of marked bank notes in Butt's hotel room
