Dubai, Oct. 13: The International Cricket Council on Wednesday said there was no “compelling evidence” into allegations that the Oval ODI between England and Pakistan was fixed.
The ICC had decided to probe the last month’s match, which Pakistan won by 23 runs, after British tabloid The Sun passed on some information to it .
The ICC had said that a “certain scoring pattern” emerged during the match as has been reported by The Sun but had made it clear that no England player was involved. “Following extensive investigations into allegations about the ODI between England and Pakistan at The Oval on September 17, the ACSU has concluded that there was no compelling evidence to suspect individual players or support staff,” an ICC statement read.
