Shoaib Akhtar in more trouble

Karachi: Banned pacer Shoaib Akhtar’s never-ending woes have been compounded further with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman, Nasim Ashraf, on Friday slapping a Rs. 220 million defamation suit against him.

The defamation suit has been filed against Akhtar for making allegations on a television show that the PCB Chairman had demanded money from him and other players for allowing them to sign contracts with the lucrative DLF-Indian Premier League.

Akhtar later retracted his claims and also made an unconditional apology before the Appellate Tribunal hearing his appeal against the five-year ban imposed on him by the Board. — PTI
