MERVYN Westfield became the first English cricketer convicted of fixing yesterday when he admitted taking money to bowl badly during a county match. At the start of his trial at the Old Bailey in London, the former Essex cricketer pleaded guilty to accepting or obtaining a corrupt payment in connection with a televised match between Essex and Durham in September 2009. But while admitting accepting money to carry out the act, which the judge said amounted to 6,000 pounds (US$9,200), Westfield denied bowling in a way that would allow the scoring of runs. Three Pakistan cricketers are currently in English jails after being convicted of spot-fixing last year.
