Indians are honest people. A bookie calls Greame Smith before the match between India and SouthAfrica.
Cell phone rings. Greame picks up.

Smith : hello
Bookie : its me. why did India score only 220. Our deal was 275.
Smith : What can I do ? They run one when they could run three, defend full toss, get out on wide balls, all catches and shots... I mean, if there is any... exactly directed to the fielders. But I will tell you this, Indians are too good at this, I tried re-arranging the field...but they never miss a fielder.
Bookie : still u could bowl more no-balls. We got only 63 extras.
Smith : I asked all my bowlers to bowl badly. I also made DeVilliers and Gibbs bowl.
Bookie : Okay... leave that... I want u to loose the match.
Smith : I will try.
Bookie : South Africa should be all out for 180
Smith : OK.
Bookie : bye.

S. Africa bats. They are making a serious attempt to not hit the ball and if at all they hit trying their best to hit to the fielders. They try to run only singles for doubles. But sometimes, they can't stop themselves from running. All South African batsmen
charged down to Pathan's bowling and they purposely miss the ball hoping at least one would hit the stumps. But they got to run a bye for that as Dhoni is still searching for the ball. Inspite of the bad display of batting, they score 218 of 49 overs. Last over, 3 runs required, the worst part is that its an Agarkar over. Greame is batting with Boucher. Bookie gets really furious.

Greame is ready to face the last over his cell rings (he plays with his cell).
Smith : hello
Bookie : its me! . What are you upto ?
Smith : We tried the best we could
Bookie : OK forget it. I want u to loose the match
Smith : what can I do. Fate !!! Agarkar is bowling
Bookie : I don't know... u are loosing

Agarkar bowls... Greame tries to hide his bat behind his back. But the ball hits the bat and goes to third man. So they take a single.
(cell rings)
Smith : sorry what can I do I was hiding my bat but still the ball comes and hit my bat. If I play much worse than this everybody will find out.
Bookie : (gets really tensed). OK I can understand. But please don't take last two runs.

Greame talks to Boucher. Agarkar bowls... a juicy full toss. Boucher uses all his batting skills to restrict that one to a single. Scores are level.
(cell rings)
Bookie : OK. Past is past. Atleast finish it in a tie. I don't know what u are going to do u are not taking a single or u give ur bat to the umpire.
Smith : OK. OK. Don't worry this time I will! see to it we are not taking the single. Let it be obvious also. I am not taking the single.

Agarkar bowls, unfortunately he bowls a no ball. South Africa wins the match.
Bookie goes mad and Greame faints in the field itself.

Moral - With a team like ours, what's the use of fixing a match? They won't win when they don't have to.
