No evidence of corruption in third ODI, rules ICC

October 13, 2010 11:07 pm | Updated 11:07 pm IST - LONDON:

The International Cricket Council (ICC) ruled on Wednesday that there was no evidence of corruption in the third One-Day International between Pakistan and England last month.

A statement from the ICC concluded there was “no compelling evidence to suspect individual players or support staff” following an investigation into scoring patterns of the match at the Oval on September 17. “The investigation is now complete but if new and corroborating evidence comes to light then clearly the Anti-Corruption and Security Unit will re-open the matter,” the statement said.

The investigation was separate from allegations of corruption levelled against Pakistan during the scandal-tainted Test series with England, which led to three players being suspended indefinitely.
