Karachi: The International Cricket Council (ICC) charge-sheeted Test captain Salman Butt and stumper batsman Kamran Akmal after getting unsatisfactory replies on the show cause notices served on them last month, media reports said here on Wednesday.

Former England cricket captain Geoffrey Boycott on Monday said the ICC has never dealt with corruption cases involving Pakistan properly and the body should hand over the latest spot-fixing scandal to ex-players such as him if it cannot punish the implicated players hard enough

Mohammad Amir's tender age of 18 may help him escape stringent punishment such as a life ban in case he is found guilty of spot-fixing allegations, ICC's CEO Haroon Lorgat has hinted

London: Scotland Yard might not have called him for questioning but Pakistani wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal remains under the ICC's scanner with cricket's world governing body reportedly writing to him in the wake of the 'spot-fixing' scandal
