The New Zealand skipper Brendon McCullum is “very comfortable” with the evidence he gave against the former all-rounder Chris Cairns, who was found not guilty of perjury and perverting the course of justice in a trial last month.
Cairns had been accused of falsely claiming he had never cheated at cricket when he won £90,000 in damages from Lalit Modi.
McCullum was one of two former team-mates, along with the self-confessed matchfixer Lou Vincent, who gave evidence against Cairns in the trial, accusing his predecessor as Test captain of twice asking him to fix matches.
Cairns was found not guilty on 30 November after an eight-week trial at Southwark crown court.
“I was very comfortable with the evidence I gave in London and I stand by that evidence as well,” McCullum told reporters in Dunedin on Wednesday. “I was one of a number of witnesses who gave evidence.
