LAHORE: Pakistan Super League Spot fixing scandal has taken a new turn as the International Cricket Council ICC Anti Corruption Unit ACU head to testify against the Pakistan players involved in the scam.
Chairman of the ICC’s anti-corruption unit, Sir Ronnie Flanagan is set to testify against suspended cricketers Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif in the ongoing spot-fixing probe by the Pakistan Cricket Board.
In the latest twist in the investigation, Sir Flanagan, a former senior police officer, is scheduled to appear before the PCB’s anti-corruption tribunal on Thursday, where he would testify against the opening duo and bring forward evidences against them.
The PCB tribunal earlier this week started hearings into spot-fixing charges against the suspended players who could face life bans if found guilty.
Sharjeel and Latif are two of five players provisionally suspended in the case, which surfaced during the second edition of the Pakistan Super League tournament staged in the UAE in February.
Shahzaib Hasan and Nasir Jamshed are also facing charges punishable by a minimum five-year ban and a maximum suspension for life.
