COLOMBO: Skipper Sri Lanakan cricket team Angelo Mathews recorded his statement regarding match fixing case, TheNewsTribe.com learnt from DawnNews.com.
Mathews said the police Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID) recorded a statement about what he knew of an approach to two Sri Lankan players to arrange a shock defeat at the hands of the West Indies at Galle last October.
“This is about a player approach, no investigation against any of the cricketers,” Mathews said after spending over five hours at the FCID office in Colombo.
He said he was questioned about what he knew of the approach made to Kusal Perera and Rangana Herath, to fix the result of a Test played at the Galle International stadium.
