    Here's what Sharjeel Khan said in his apology to PCB
  • Pakistan batsman Sharjeel Khan recently delivered an unconditional apology to the Pakistan Cricket Board.

    Notably, he was banned for his alleged involvement in spot-fixing during a match of the Pakistan Super League.

    Sharjeel met PCB's Anti-Corruption offices on Monday, as the apology was a part of his rehabilitation program, while he looks to return to competitive cricket.

    Here are further details.

  • In 2017, following an investigation, Sharjeel was found guilty of being involved in a spot-fixing case in the Pakistan Super League, playing for Islamabad United.

    As a result, the Pakistani board had initially banned him for five years from all forms of cricket.

    However, the board later decided that half of his ban would remain suspended for the time being.

  • Quote

    "Sharjeel has completed two and a half years of ineligibility"

  • "Sharjeel has completed his two and a half years of ineligibility and will now complete rehabilitation before the end of the year and then reintegrate into top-level cricket," added the PCB's statement.

  • Speaking on the issue further, PCB's Anti-Corruption Director Asif Mahmood said that while the board does not take pleasure in punishing their players, they are strict when it comes to Anti-Corruption policy.

    "I hope this serves as a reminder to all those who think they can get away with violating rules, as the board is vigilant and committed to eliminate the menace," added Mahmood.
