Kaneria's PCB case to be hear

Danish Kaneria

The first full hearing of the case file by not needed Danish Kaneria next to the PCB will be heard at the Sindh High Court on Tuesday.

The PCB's legal team will submit its complete reply to the appeal filed by the not needed leg-spinner in which he has said that the board had given no reason for not clearance him to play for the national team.

The court summoned the PCB officials for the hearing to give details why Kaneria was not being careful for selection when the Essex police had empty him in the spot-fixing examination that was held last year.

Kaneria and fellow Essex bowler Mervyn Westfield were under arrest last year on charges of spot-fixing during a Pro40 match against Durham.

Kaneria was later unrestricted without being charged but Westfield faces criminal events.

But sources said the PCB legal team was planning to inform the court about reports in the British press that Kaneria was still not cleared in the case.

Apparently a British newspaper, which covered the court hearing of the case last year in September, had report that the Essex police in its announcement filed with the court had said that Kaneria was still a co-accused in the case.

Kaneria feature in Pakistan's Test series against England last year but has not been selected since for global matches.

The PCB will be represent by its legal avisor, Tafazzul Rizvi.

This is the second time in two months that a senior player has gone to the Sindh High Court against the PCB.

Pakistan's former captain, Shahid Afridi had also filed a petition against the PCB in June for not issuing him a NOC to play in England for Hampshire.
