Kaneria given life ban from English cricket
Westfield was given a five-year ban, although he will be able to play club cricket in the final two years of his suspension.
In a statement an ECB disciplinary panel said: "We regard Danish Kaneria as a grave danger to the game of cricket and we must take every appropriate step to protect our game from his corrupt activities.
"Accordingly, we are unanimously of the view that the only appropriate sanction in relation to both charges is one of suspension for life and that is the sanction we impose.
"This means from today Danish Kaneria is suspended from any involvement in the playing, organisation or administration of any cricket under the jurisdiction of the ECB."

@Saim Baig: "Now KCCA should stop whining about discrimination. See, why was he out of the team"
How many people who were given life bans by PCB for misconduct or malpractice were reinstated within a year? When PCB is inconistent in discipling people it gets noticed.
@X!: "If Pakistan had done it, it would have looked religious discrimination to our liberal-maniacs"
Yes because Pakistan has not suspended anyone else for life due to their corruption. So it would have been religious discrimination.
Now KCCA should stop whining about discrimination. See, why was he out of the team.
While in Rome, do as Romans do. Thank you Mr Kaneria.
@Ravi: Go to google and type in the word ! Simple .
@hedgefunder - can u plz tell me what is hedgefunder
Another Brethren and Countryman brought to account for their deeds, in trying the bring the beautiful game into disrepute !!!!
If Pakistan had done it, it would have looked religious discrimination to our liberal-maniacs. Nevertheless, it is still sad for Pakistan that another of its player faces ban. We need to educate our players well.
Great Job. Keep him out. I wish ICC also would ban him for life.
That was the right thing to do...!!!
