Australian cricketer Mark Waugh denied any involvement with an Indian bookmaker when he appeared before anti-corruption investigators at a Melbourne hotel.

"I denied the allegations when they first came out and that hasn't changed," the 35-year-old said after his interview.

Waugh spent two-and-a-half hours with Greg Melick, the Australian Cricket Board investigator, and two members of the International Cricket Council's anti-corruption unit.

"I was a little bit nervous but I was fine once I was in there.

"I answered all the questions that were asked of me, it was a friendly atmosphere and I'm glad it's over," he added.

During the meeting Waugh stated that he had never met M K Gupta who was identified in an Indian police report as having paid Waugh US$20,000 for information.

Waugh had been accused of providing team and pitch details to the Indian bookmaker prior to a match in Hong Kong during a tournament in 1993.

The star batsman has denied the accusation, having admitted to only receiving US$4,000 from another bookmaker, known only as "John", in 1994 while in Sri Lanka.

Melick declined to give any details of the meeting with Waugh, saying it was only part of an overall investigation into the case.

Gupta's evidence in India has already been crucial in ending the careers of South African captain Hansie Cronje and Indian skipper Mohammed Azharuddin.

Both were found guilty of match-fixing after accusations against them by Gupta were proven to be correct.

However, Gupta refused to cooperate with investigators when they flew to India to interview him recently over accusations against other overseas players including Waugh.

Waugh stayed at the Melbourne hotel overnight to ensure his entrance for the meeting was a low-key affair.

The hotel is adjacent to the Melbourne Cricket Ground, where the night before Waugh scored 173 runs - the highest by any Australian in a one-day match - to lead Australia to victory over the West Indies.

Asked if that was the end of his name being raised in the on-going investigations, Waugh concluded: "That's not up to me, that's up to the ICC."
