Salman Butt and Kamran Akmal Clreared by ICC from Spot-fixing Allegations in T20 World Cup in West Indies


The ICC has reportedly cleared Salman Butt and Kamran Akmal of all the allegations regarding spot-fixing during the T20 World Cup in West Indies.

According to a Pakistani news channel, the Anti-corruption unit of the ICC, after collecting all the evidences including phone records, has found the alleged players innocent.

Salman Butt told the news channel that the duo were cleared of all the charges 3 weeks ago and also said that the ICC was just formally investigating the phone records and other evidences.

England's victory in the T20 World Cup had come under scanner as their game against Pakistan in the super eight stage was alleged to have been fixed. England had outperformed Pakistan by winning the game by 6 wickets.

However, Salman Butt's suspension from all forms of cricket will continue as the spot-fixing scandal during the England Tests is still under the scanner.
