Sobers Joban: What Priyank brother say about the Ashes work, is you are interested he will talk to the man, The Silent Man, the Australian man, and he will go Australia. If you want to go with him alright, but in meeting you will not sit. And whatever money he count for, I don't know what he give, whether he give script or session. Win/loss of whatever it is - at that time how much money he want he will tell. Right now there is no ... If I tell you he want one crore (£11600), he want five crores (£580,000) for that. But if he tell a little work with sessions or win/lose - confirmed.

Journalist: This is how accurate it is. Down to the last run?

SJ: Yes, 52, 53 no, 51-52 it's OK - 53 no. Second inning 6th over 45 runs - no out - whatever you want. 152 runs you chasing. 10 overs, 90 - one out. 12, 13,1 4 overs - four wickets go down in three overs.

Journalist: You put that in the script?

SJ: Yeah, whatever you want, it's about whatever you are connected with the man.

SJ: Each one is new and each one is old. Old signals and new signals. You have a red t-shirt and I give you a red watch, you wear a red watch because a t-shirt is not full and half. In the IPL five t-shirts will be the first size. Five t-shirts will be given by the team half (sleeves). He will not give any signal but bowling with a full t-shirt - 6th, 10th over, 15h, 20th over - OK that is the signal. One wide that is a signal and bowling and just stop without delivering any ball - this is a signal.

JR: How long do you need? Is it just minutes to be able to affect the market?

SJ: We have two to three minutes, phone line is connected and you just call the bets, yes, yes, no, no, yes, yes, no, no.

JR: so it's three minutes?

SJ: Yes. At that moment you will not sit around, you sit in twos, three, fours and they will be connected like a tree.

SJ: I have made a lot of contacts with South Africa players, Australian players, Pakistan players, all thing is they want money guaranteed and you will not be going to speak with anybody.

SJ: Yes, IPL is giving very good opportunity to everybody, if you want to invest IPL

Journalist: About fixing?

SJ: About the money.
