AFP, Karachi :
Pakistan’s perennial problem-maker Umar Akmal was suspended Thursday under an anti-corruption rule, cricket officials announced, sidelining him from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) pending an inquiry.
The 29-year-old has received numerous fines and suspensions in his 11-year career, and was arrested in 2014 after violating traffic rules in his native Lahore.
“He cannot take part in any cricket-related activity pending the investigation being carried out by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB)’s anti-corruption unit,” the board said in a statement.
