Why Nasir Jamshed has been suspended by PCB

DUBAI: The Pakistan Cricket Board, on Monday, provisionally suspended opening batsman Nasir Jamshed from all forms of cricket for violating PCB's anti-corruption code.

The PCB has yet to officially elaborate the nature and timing of violation but it is understood that it is connected with the recent corruption scandal in Pakistan Super League (PSL) which led to the suspension of Khalid Latif and Sharjeel Khan.

Nasir Jamshed was reportedly alleged in the media as the player who connected players with suspected bookies.

The PCB on Friday had suspended Khalid Latif and Sharjeel Khan after an initial inquiry into attempts by an international syndicate to corrupt Pakistan Super League.
