![]() Match-fixing report: The main points
Under scrutiny: Lara, Waugh and Stewart
BBC Sport Online digests the main allegations included in the 162-page report by India's Central Bureau of Investigation into the issue of corruption in cricket.
The report is largely made up of testimony from Indian bookmakers, as well as players. It does not amount to the levelling of formal charges against any of those named.
Azharuddin confessed during interrogation to taking the money from a bookmaker, MK Gupta, and had named Jadeja and Mongia as his associates in the fraud.
But Gupta stressed that both Stewart and New Zealander Martin Crowe - whom he claimed accepted $20,000 for match information - both refused his offers to fix matches.
Live television broadcasts fo the matches boosted the betting further, with the bookies making profitable use of computers and mobile telephones.
