Cricket: PCB snubs Raza after arrest

KARACHI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will not include former Test cricketer-turned umpire Akram Raza in its panel to officiate matches for the upcoming Pakistan ‘A’ one-day series against Afghanistan.

Raza was arrested earlier this month following a police raid against a betting racket in Lahore. The former off-spinner will have to appear in a court hearing. Afghanistan arrives today for a three-match series starting tomorrow.
