From Nine To Noon, 9:30 am on 16 October 2015

The New Zealand cricket captain has spoken about why he didn't report offers to fix the outcome of cricket matches until nearly three years after he was first approached. Brendon McCullum has been giving evidence at Chris Cairns' London perjury trial, claiming he was asked twice in 2008, but he didn't report it until 2011, which he regretted. Chris Cairns is on trial accused of lying under oath about match-fixing in a 2012 libel case, which he won against Lalit Modi the former Indian Premier League Chairman. He denies the perjury charge, which carries up to seven years in jail.
