2017 Pakistan Super League spot-fixing scandal  The 2017 Pakistan Super League spot-fixing scandal arose in February 2017 when the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) suspended cricketers under its anti-corruption code in an ongoing investigation backed by International Cricket Council (ICC)'s Anti-Corruption and Security Unit on spot-fixing during the 2017 Pakistan Super League. The six cricketers suspended by the PCB are: Sharjeel Khan (on 10 February), Khalid Latif (on 10 February), Nasir Jamshed (on 13 February), Mohammad Irfan (on 14 March), Shahzaib Hasan (on 17 March) and Mohammad Nawaz (16 May). In March 2017, the PCB banned Irfan for one year from all forms of the game after he pleaded guilty to the charges. After several months of hearing, in August 2017, Sharjeel was found guilty of five counts of the charges and banned for five years from all forms of cricket, while Latif was banned for five years the following month being found guilty of six counts of the charges. Jamshed was handed a one-year ban in December; investigation is ongoing in the case of Shahzaib, as of January 2018. On 10 February, it was reported that Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif were questioned and provisionally suspended by the PCB's Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) after the conclusion of the opening match of the 2017 Pakistan Super League which was being held in the UAE. Islamabad United player Mohammad Irfan was also questioned by the Anti-Corruption Unit along with his teammates Sharjeel and Latif, with the PCB announcing that, unlike the other two, Irfan would not "face any immediate suspension." On 11 February, Zulfiqar Babar and Shahzaib Hasan were also questioned by the Anti-Corruption Unit, but were allowed to take further part in the tournament. Pakistan Super League (PSL) chairman Najam Sethi said that they had evidence against Sharjeel and Latif, but waited till the end of the match to see whether the two would fulfill their commitments to the bookmakers. He added, "We knew what commitments they had made. Islamabad United played Sharjeel but not Khalid. But when the match was held it was confirmed Sharjeel had done what he had committed to do to the bookmakers." He also stated that they feared making the announcement before the start of tournament as it "could affect the PSL and its reputation." On 13 February, Nasir Jamshed was provisionally suspended by the PCB for violating its anti-corruption code.
