Sri Lanka's sports minister, M. Aluthgamage admitted that government had investigated allegations of match fixing in the finals of the recently concluded T-20 World Cup in which Sri Lanka lost to West Indies, but added that the findings show that the allegations are baseless. Replying to a debate in the parliament, sports minister remarked that though it was reasonable to suspect wrongdoing since Sri Lanka has lost four World Cup finals since 2007, there is no evidence to suggest any fixing. He added that the government plans to bring strong anti-corruption law to stamp out the menace of match fixing in cricket in the country, and a committee has been set up to draft the law. He pointed out that since 2000, 20 players have been banned for life from playing by the ICC after being found guilty of match fixing. The ICC has set up an anti-corruption and security unit, and it was used by Sri Lanka during the Sri Lanka Premier League tournament this year, the minster informed the members.<br/><br/>
