Pak players served notices

Islamabad, Sept 5: The Pakistan Cricket Board has served show-cause notices on players against whom the Justice Qayyum Commission had recommended action for not revealing the entire truth during the inquiry into match-fixing allegations.

Zia said the fines would be recovered from the players before the ICC knock-out tournament in Nairobi next month, as ICC8217;s board of directors would be meeting there to discuss the progress of measures they had taken to curb match-fixing.

Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Saeed Anwar and Akram Raza were the players against whom Justice Qayyum had recommended fines ranging between Rs 100,000 and Rs 300,000.

Zia also said PCB8217;s special investigator Naveed Rasool had examined the local assets of the players mentioned by Qayyum and found everything to be in order.
