Former Pakistan cricket captain Imran Khan has rubbished Interior Minister Rehman Malik’s warning to the Pakistan cricket team not to indulge in match fixing in their crucial World Cup semi-final against India.
Khan said he was more worried about the activities of Malik than of the Pakistan cricket team. He said he was confident that the national team would put pride before all else to try and beat India in Wednesday’s clash at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium in Mohali.
Khan was giving a rejoinder to Malik’s warning that he (Malik) was keeping a "close watch" on the team’s activities.
Malik told media persons: "I gave a warning that there should be no match-fixing. I am keeping a close watch. If any such thing happens, we are going to take action."
Malik was speaking in Karachi days ahead of the game in Mohali that will showcase one of the world''s most intense sporting rivalries.
