Al Jazeera has hit back at criticism from world cricket's governing body, the ICC, for not sharing evidence of match-fixing before broadcasting a documentary that has made headlines around the world. Alex Marshall, the head of the International Cricket Council's anti-corruption unit, complained that Al Jazeera's refusal to hand over all "unedited and unseen evidence" had "hampered" the ICC's investigation". But a spokesman for Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit said the ICC's complaints showed "a failure to understand investigative journalism; no self-respecting media entity in the world releases its evidence to any party pre-publication."
