Kambli Said' Cricket World Cup semi-final 1996 was fixed

MUMBAI: Former Indian batsman Vinod Kambli has alleged that the 1996 World Cup semi-final between India and Sri Lanka was fixed.


Kambli who was an important part of the 1996 World Cup squad made this claim on an India news channel.

Kambli said he was shocked at the Indian decision to field first in the semi-final because the pitch was ideal for batting.

The Indian side which lost the semi-final to Sri Lanka was captained by Mohammed Azharuddin who was forced to retire later in his career because of his involvement in a match-fixing scandal.
