Pakistan Cricket Board’s appeal tribunal Saturday lifted the one-year ban on former captain Shoaib Malik. Malik’s lawyer told the media that the one-man tribunal partially accepted his client’s appeal.
And that Malik’s ban was lifted and his fine of Rs.2 million halved. The decision was taken by Irfan Qadir, a retired judge, during a hearing in Lahore Saturday.
Malik was banned for a year last March because of disciplinary issues following an inquiry into Pakistan’s catastrophic tour of Australia in 2009-10, where they lost all their matches.
Mailk was one of seven leading Pakistan players who were slapped with penalties by a PCB inquiry committee. Except for former captain Mohammad Yousuf, who retired in protest, all six players appealed against the punishments.
