Nasir Jamshed
PCB's legal advisor Taffazul Rizvi said Jamshed was the "lynchpin" in the scandal.
The Pakistan Cricket Board announced that former batsman Nasir Jamshed has been banned for 10 years due to his involvement in the spot-fixing scandal during the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2016-17 season.
Nasir was suspended in 2017 for violating the PCB's anti-corruption code and handed a one-year ban in December for failing to co-operate with the ACU's investigation.
After the investigation, Nasir was found guilty in relation to five of the seven breaches of the board's anti-corruption code.
Apart from him, batsmen Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif were handed five-year bans for their role in the scandal, while paceman Mohammad Irfan and all-rounder Mohammad Nawaz received respective suspensions for 12 and two months.
PCB's legal advisor Taffazul Rizvi said Jamshed was the "lynchpin" in the scandal.
"The tribunal has reached the verdict that the PCB's multiple charges against Nasir Jamshed have been proved and he was banned for 10 years," said Rizvi.
