The Pakistan Cricket Board provisionally suspended Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif under its Anti-Corruption Code and dumped the pair out of the Pakistan Super League. Lately, Mobile phones of all the three suspected cricketers were confiscated by anti-corruption unit and would be checked for the inquiry.
No further details were released but the pair were thought to be linked to spot-fixing, an illegal betting practice rife in Pakistan cricket in recent years.
Najam Sethi, chairman of the Pakistan Super League said that it would not be appropriate to comment on the specifics of the case, however this investigation is a clear demonstration of our determination to drive corruption out of our sport.
