The ICC on Monday said the Twenty20 and ODI series between Pakistan and England will go on as per schedule and “appropriate” action on ‘spot-fixing’ allegations against Pakistani cricketers will be taken after the completion of investigation by the London police.
“It is the desire of the ICC, England and Pakistan that the game is continued,” ICC president Sharad Pawar said after a teleconference with top ICC officials, PCB Chairman Ejaz Butt and ECB chairman Giles Clarke.
Pakistan and England square off in two Twenty20 internationals (September 5 and 7) before playing five ODIs from September 10-22.
Mr Pawar said besides the London police, the ICC anti-corruption unit is also preparing a report. The world body will take action after studying both the investigations and a report from the PCB.
