In late October 2019 an Indian businessman approached me and invited me to India to discuss sponsorship for hosting the T20 tournament in Zimbabwe. I will be given up to Rs 15 lakh for this discussion.
They demanded that ‘spot-fixing’ be done in international competitions and that the video be released to the public if they did not agree to it. Fearing that my life would be in danger due to the intimidation of those six people, I consented to what they said. They gave me $ 15,000. They said the amount was an advance for spot-fixing and that an additional $ 20,000 would be paid upon completion of the work.
In these moments the businessman began to ask for a refund. But I did not give up. I reported the crime to the ICC four months later. I agree that four months is a very long delay. The reason for the delay in not reporting to the ICC is the safety and well-being of my family. I approached the ICC only after believing in it.
