Match-fixing row: PCB to demand Lorgats removal
LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to demand the removal of Haroon Lorgat as head of the International Cricket Council (ICC) over his role in handling match-fixing allegations, reliable sources told SAMAA.
According to PCB, Haroon Lorgat violated ICC rules by announcing the investigation of the Oval match without taking English and Pakistan cricket boards into confidence about the decision.
As per ICC rules, Lorgat should have informed the boards of the two playing teams before making any decision regarding the match-fixing allegations leveled by a British newspaper against the Pakistani team. He, however, issued a media statement without consulting the two boards.
Sources say PCB Chief Ijaz Butt and ICC President Sharad Pawar are also likely to hold a key meeting in Dubai on Tuesday. SAMAA
