Cricketer banned 10 years for spot-fixing

The BBC reports saying that former Pakistan opener Nasir Jamshed has been banned for 10 years for his part in the spot-fixing scandal during the 2017 Pakistan Super League.

The 28-year-old, who has 48 one-day internationals and two Test matches to his credit, had already been handed a one-year ban for his failure to co-operate with an investigation into the issue.

Jamshed's last international appearance was in March 2015 in an ODI against the United Arab Emirates at that year's World Cup, while he has not appeared in domestic cricket since December 2016.
