Pakistan 'corruption' trio charged and suspended by I

The three Pakistan cricketers accused of corruption have been charged with various offences by the International Cricket Council (ICC).

Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir are being investigated by police over allegations Asif and Amir bowled deliberate no-balls against England.

The ICC charges relate to "alleged irregular behaviour" in the fourth Test at Lord's last Thursday and Friday.

Provisionally suspended, the trio now have 14 days to appeal.

Asif and Amir are alleged to have bowled three no-balls at pre-determined times to facilitate betting coups after a "middle-man" was reported to have accepted £150,000 from an News of the World reporter who published the video last sunday!
