Miandad says he will not mind death penalty for match-fixers

KARACHI: Javed Miandad while talking to the media, said that the cricket structure in Pakistan needed an overhaul in order to control match fixing. Miandad said that he will even favour death penalty for match-fixers.

Talking to media, Miandad said that players commit spot fixing for money and urged PCB to change penalties for this heinous crime and demanded stern action against the accused.

Shahid Afridi has also demanded of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to take stern action and impose life ban if the players allegedly involved in the recent match-fixing scandal in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) are found guilty.

Sharjeel Khan, Khalid Latif, Nasir Jamshed and Mohammad Irfan have already been conditionally suspended from all formats of the game due to alleged spot-fixing in second edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL), and Umar Amin and Zulfiqar Babar might be summoned by PCB soon as well.
