The Thin White Line: The Inside Story of Cricket's Greatest Scandal
tells the story of the spot-fixing scandal of 2010, which sent
shockwaves through the sport. It stunned the wider sporting world
and confirmed the reputation of the News of the World's Mazher
Mahmood as the most controversial news reporter of his generation.
It was the start of a stunning chain of events that saw the News of
the World shut down, Pakistan captain Salman Butt and bowlers
Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir banned and sent to prison, before
Mahmood himself ended up behind bars. This gripping, forensic
account takes the reader through the twists and turns of those
fateful days late one August and beyond. For the first time, it
shines a light on the tradecraft of the News of the World team and
how they exposed the criminal scheming of the cricketers and their
fixer Mazhar Majeed. It reveals how deeply fixing had penetrated
the Pakistan dressing room, and lifts the lid on the black arts of
investigative reporting which would eventually prove Mahmood's
undoing.
