Cricketer Nasir Jamshed, via his legal attorney, has submitted his reply to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) against match-fixing allegations levelled against him, per Express News.
The 27-year-old batsman, who is currently serving a suspension for his alleged involvement in facilitating the infamous corruption scandal of the Pakistan Super League season 2, has decided to fight the charges.
Jamshed has told informed the PCB of his decision but has asked the board to wait till the investigations in Britain, of which he is a part, get concluded. He has requested the board to launch their own investigations thereafter.

Back in February, Jamshed was arrested by Britain’s National Crime Agency (NCA) alongside a bookie named Yousuf before being released on bail but with the promise of reporting back for investigation in April.
Jamshed is accused of referring Islamabad duo Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif to the said bookie Yousuf.
