LAHORE, Dec 27: A two-member committee will find out the causes which led to sudden disruption of electricity at the Gaddafi Stadium during the third One-day International between Pakistan and the West Indies on Dec 10.

The play remained suspended for 66 minutes due to the electricity failure.

Pakistan Cricket Board official Salim Altaf said on Tuesday that he along with another member of the board Moin Afzal would probe the incident.

Salim, who was leaving for Singapore on Wednesday to attend an Asian Cricket Council (ACC) meeting, said an electric engineer would also be included in the committee to see technical aspects of the findings.

Meanwhile, Salim said the PCB did not receive anything in writing either from the WADA or the International Olympic Committee (IOC) regarding exoneration of Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif.
