PCB: Butt, Asif can play post-ban

Pakistan will allow disgraced former captain Salman Butt and Mohammad Asif back into domestic cricket once they serve their bans for spot-fixing, the country's cricket chief said yesterday

On Wednesday, the Court of Arbitration for Sports rejected appeals from Butt and Asif. Butt was banned for 10 years, five suspended, and Asif for seven years with two suspended.

“They will have to serve it. Then we will include them in first-class domestic cricket and see how they perform,” said Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Zaka Ashraf.
