Disgraced Pakistan leg-spinner Danish Kaneria is currently under investigation by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) after reports emerged that he played in an exhibition tournament in the United States in April.
Kaneria was found guilty of spot-fixing in 2012 and was subsequently banned from participating in any cricket tournament around the world by the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Kaneria allegedly played for the Houston Eagles in a Twenty20 match against the Boom Boom Blasters, who had Wahab Riaz and Nasir Jamshed representing them.
It has also been revealed that the PCB are investigating Fawad Alam, Abdul Razzaq and Shahzaib Hasan for taking part in the tournament as well.
“We are looking into how these players featured in these matches – authorised or unauthorised – without our permission,” PCB chief operating officer Subhan Ahmed said.
