Umar Akmal’s 3-year ban from cricket will end on February 19, 2023

Akmal was banned for three years from all forms of cricket last week for failing to report corrupt approaches before this year’s Pakistan Super League.

The 29-year-old Akmal was provisionally suspended on Feb. 20, just hours before he was due to represent Quetta Gladiators in the PSL’s opening game at Karachi. And it was confirmed Friday that the ban starts from



that date.

The chairman of Pakistan Cricket Board’s disciplinary committee, retired Justice Fazal-e-Miran Chauhan, imposed a ban of three years for each of the two charges of violating the PCB’s anti-corruption code. Both periods of ineligibility will run concurrently.
