After Mohammad Aamer, another suspended Pakistan cricketer Salman Butt has allegedly flouted International Cricket Council (ICC) directives by featuring in a club match in Lahore. According to reports, the former Pakistan captain featured in a club game played at his home ground in Model Town, Lahore, even though the ICC has in clear terms told the suspended players and the Pakistan
Cricket Board (PCB) that they cannot take part in any cricket activity that come under the umbrella of the PCB or its affiliated units. Mainstream Urdu daily reported Friday that Lahore's Cricket Association officials were present when Salman Butt, a Test opener, took part in the match. However, a PCB spokesman has denied the report and claimed that Salman never appeared in any club game.
Last week, another newspaper reported that Mohammad Aamer featured in a club match in Rawalpindi. The ICC demanded answers from the PCB on the issue. Salman Butt, Aamer and fellow Pakistan player Mohammad Asif were provisionally suspended by the ICC last September over allegations of spot-fixing during Pakistan's tour of England.
