DURBAN: Former South African cricketer Derek Crookes has expressed shock and astonishment that his name was mentioned by teammate Herschelle Gibbs as one of three cricketers involved in match-fixing during South Africa's tour to India in 2000.

Gibbs, who was questioned by Indian police on Thursay, accepted that he received offers to underform in ODIs in 1996 and 2000, named Crookes along with two other South African players as being part of the match-fixing conspiracy.

Indian police have not mentioned the names of the two other players given by Gibbs, who did not accept of taking any money and said he was doing only what his late captain Hansie Cronje wanted him to do.

Crookes, a former off-spinner who took part in the 2000 tour, told a newspaper that his name has already been cleared by the Kings Commission set up by the South African authorities to probe the scandal.

"I was shocked when I heard it especially as I was cleared by the King Commission of any involvement in match-fixing. I have never had anything to hide and gave evidence during the King Commission's hearings," Crookes was quoted as saying in The Johannesburg Afrikaans daily newspaper, Beeld.

Crookes said he would like to make a statement to the Indian police.

"I will be more than willing to make a statement, along with my legal team, to the Indian police," Crookes said.
