The International Cricket Council said Thursday it has provisionally suspended the three Pakistan players accused of involvement in a betting scam. In a statement on its website, the ICC said it had charged Test captain Salman Butt and bowlers Mohammad Aamer and Mohammad Asif with various offences under its anti-corruption code.
The players "have been officially notified of the offences they are alleged to have committed and have been provisionally suspended pending a decision on those charges", the statement said. "In accordance with the provisions of the code, this means they are immediately barred from participating in all cricket and related activities until the case has been concluded."
