ICC slams Pakistan's conspiracy theory: Probe to take months

Pakistan’s conspiracy theory was slammed by International Cricket Council (ICC) which according to them was the reason of the suspension of three of its players in connection to the spot-fixing scandal which took place in the fourth and last test match of the Test series played against England at Lord’s last week.

ICC also reported that it will take months for them to come with any decision on the career of the three accused Pakistani players.ICC also said that the cricketers have a case to answer but they refused to specify the charges on the accused players.

Well for now, the players have been charged under the ICC’s anti-corruption code and have been provisionally suspended until they face the law court.ICC chief executive, Haroon Lorgat, admitted this scandal as one of the worst crisis that the sport was facing after Hansie Cronje controversy almost a decade ago.

Lorgat made it very clear that if the alleged players will be found guilty, they will likely face a potential life ban which would end their International cricketing career. He also said that the accused players would not be able to claim ignorance as a defence as all international cricket players are generally educated about the risks involved in match fixing.

Well, the police are busy out in investigation and earlier today juvenile Pakistani bowler, Mohammed Aamer was questioned by Scotland Yard in regard to this case. Police are investigating whether money found in the possession of the players can be linked to that provided by the News of the World to the middleman, Mazhar Majeed, an agent to seven Pakistan players.

The tabloid has also revealed that it is going to come with something more alluring about the Pakistan team’s scandal this Sunday.
