Is India's loss to windies just a coincidence or is match fixing a norm

Have you ever wondered how dramatic change of luck always happens in india matches and the side goes from sure win to loss(or even vice-versa). Have u noticed that India has won one of either the test or oneday series on a tour in the last 7 tours meaning they were neither bad nor good enough(except for S.A.) Have u noticed that if india had won the third match of present series, the interest in the final match would have been over(and india made a low score on a 300+ wicket) Is it just in my head or is match fixing behind all this (from the cricket control bodies)????????????? Call me paranoid or a devoted indian team believer as u please.....

Come on man! You have to believe that the game is played in true spirits. Otherwise you can never enjoy the game. It might surface a few years later that the game is fixed, so what, as long as you enjoyed the game on the day. Let us support the Indian team and keep these thoughts aside to enjoy the game!

i think that u r right on ur point that if they had won this match then the interest for the last match would have gone down. but this is not a case of match fixing. many teams do this in order to make profits out of the game. as we all know that cricket game involves a lot of investment and there are sponsors, then match organizers, stadium, and many other things that involve cost and investment. so if they are doing business then they r doing at the cost of public viewerships. if public will not see the match then who is going to be benefitted?? no one. so to keep the interest on and to extract the benefits of the match they do this and definitely this had been done selfishly and there was a motive behind this.
