As Lucas Paqueta’s spot-fixing trial comes to an end and we wait for the verdict, Gabby and Mark welcome convicted match-fixer, Moses Swaibu, to the studio. Swaibu went from scholar of the year at Crystal Palace to a 16-month sentence for match-fixing at non-league Bromley. He reveals how rife match fixing is now, what he did to fix games and what he wants to see change. With lower pay is the women’s game more susceptible to match fixing? The Telegraph’s Sonia Twigg tells us about her investigation into betting in women’s cricket.
