Cricket might be called the "gentlemen's game", but it has been anything but at times over the years.
We count down the top 20 most controversial moments in cricket history.
6. Death of Bob Woolmer (2007)
Bob Woolmer's death sent shockwaves through cricket tragics across the globe. The night before, Ireland ruined Pakistan's chances in the 2007 World Cup in a three-wicket loss, the next day, their coach Bob Woolmer was found dead in his hotel room.
It took a turn for the worst when the police stated that the autopsy findings were inconclusive. A murder investigation soon followed, which was then changed to an open verdict by an 11-member jury.
Many former cricketers such as Clive Rose and Ian Chappell believed a mafia betting syndicate murdered Woolmer. In an article with Cricinfo, Chappell even stated that Woolmer was on the verge of revealing a large underbelly that would've rocked the very foundations of the ICC.
This tragedy will forever be one of cricket's greatest mysteries.
