Dubai: International Cricket Council (ICC) has suspended two United Arab Emirates (UAE) players, Mohammad Naveed and Shaiman Anwar Butt, from all forms of cricket for eight years for involvement in corrupt practices.
As per details, the bans are backdated to October 16, 2019, when the pair were provisionally suspended for attempting to corrupt matches of the T20 World Cup Qualifier in the UAE.
The ICC tribunal after a full hearing and presentation of written and oral argument found both Naveed and Shaiman guilty of breaching two counts of the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) corruption code in relation to the T10 league.
The players booked under Article 2.1.1 "for being party to an agreement or effort to fix or contrive or otherwise influence improperly the result, progress, conduct or other aspect(s) of a match or matches at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Qualifier 2019," said an ICC release.
The second was "failing to disclose to the (anti-corruption unit) full details of any approaches or invitations received to engage in corrupt conduct under the code at the ICC men's T20 World Cup Qualifier 2019."
Naveed was the captain and leading wicket taker while Anwar was the opening bat. Both had long international careers.
