Mfarhanonline:ICC probing Aamer ban breach claims

Fav Tag:


Mfarhanonline Sports News LONDON: The International Cricket Council are investigating reports that Pakistan bowler Mohammad Aamer has continued playing despite his ban for spot-fixing, a spokesman said Wednesday.

Aamer, 19, was hit with a five-year ban in February following allegations of involvement in a spot-fixing scandal during last summer”s Test series between England and Pakistan.

However reports in England have said Aamer has flouted the terms of his ban by playing for a junior club in Surrey.

“We have heard the reports and we are investigating,” ICC spokesman James Fitzgerald said.

“The suspension very clearly states that it is a suspension from all forms of cricket and all cricket-related activities.”

The Daily Star reported that Aamer had been spotted playing for Addington 1743 in a Surrey Cricket League Division One game last Saturday.

Witnesses said Aamir stole the show, scoring 60 runs before taking four wickets in an 81-run win over St Lukes.

“No one could quite believe it was him,” St Lukes batsman Karl Quinn, 37, was quoted as saying. “There was no attempt to disguise who he was, he even posed for a picture with me.

“One of our Pakistani players was rubbing his eyes in disbelief and asking: ”Is that who I think it is?”. He didn”t stay till the end but it was blatantly him.” (AFP)
