Later that summer the tourists went on to complete their first 5-0 “blackwash”. Before moving on to look at the two games that were the focus of Topley’s later statements it is worth making the point that match fixing is, in a sense, permitted by the Laws of Cricket, and for many years, in England in particular, was a consistent feature of the First Class game. "We've had our fair share of guys unavailable for various reasons this season, so to have another bowling option for the rest of the season is great news," Sussex head coach Jason Gillespie said.

The details of the investigation have never been made public but they certainly, and inevitably given the overall circumstances, and particularly the lapse of time, concluded that nothing could be proved. Surrey have signed left-arm fast bowler Reece Topley on a two-year white-ball deal. That Lancashire had to wait until the first delivery of their final over to overhaul Essex’s modest total and secure a five wicket victory, was in part due to Topley’s bowling spell which brought him 3-29 from seven overs. There can have been little help for the Warwickshire seamers as skipper Bob Willis bowled himself, Gladstone Small and Willie Hogg for just 20 overs in total.

Four day Championship cricket has certainly reduced the need for “contrived” finishes to be arranged between captains, but the principle of agreement being reached that the batting side will leave the bowling side a target of x runs to be scored in y overs is as acceptable now as it was in 1991. Something else confirmed by Hussain is that in the Essex dressing room of the late 80s and early 90s “Toppers” and “Pring” were rather less than best mates.

Given the conservatism inherent in the views of his employers I think it unlikely that the “Topley Affair” would get a mention, or that if it did it would be dealt with in anything other than a similar manner to the Pringle approach back in 1994. Current editor of Wisden ,Scyld Berry, penned a hard-hitting piece in the March 2001 edition of Wisden Cricket Monthly in which he was deeply critical of what he clearly saw as a deeply flawed attempt on the part of the ECB to rid itself of the skeleton in its cupboard, describing their actions as “….. a bungled time bomb waiting to explode in the ECB’s face…”. Essex were crowned County Champions at the end of the season.
The 25 year-old will also be available for first-class cricket on a game by game basis.
