Father of the former Delhi age- group cricketer, caught in the Ashes spot-fixing controversy, says his son has never even been to England or Australia, let alone fix matches involving the two countries. In a sting operation conducted by British tabloid 'The Sun', Sobers Joban, along with another alleged bookie Priyank Saxena, are seen claiming that they can fix Ashes Test in lieu of 140,000 pounds. However, the ICC's Anti-Corruption Unit has clarified that there has not been any evidence of corruption in the ongoing Test in Perth. "My son has never been to UK or Australia and they (The Sun) are claiming that he could have fixed an Ashes Test,"
