Pakistan charge 2 in PSL corruption probe

Pakistani cricket officials on Saturday charged Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif for spot-fixing in a corruption probe that threatens to undermine the Pakistan Super League.
The pair, suspended after being accused of meeting a suspicious person linked to an international betting syndicate, could face up to a life ban from international and domestic cricket under Pakistan Cricket Board corruption rules.
“The PCB has issued Notice of Charge to the provisionally suspended players under the PCB Anti-Corruption Code,” the Pakistan Cricket Board said in a statement.
Another former player Nasir Jamshed was also provisionally suspended over allegedly influencing the two players. Jamshed was reportedly arrested in London on Monday but was granted bail until April.
