The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is all set to investigate former batsman Nasir Jamshed for his alleged involvement in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) spot-fixing scandal after getting consent from UK authorities in this regard.

Jamshed had earlier said he wanted to see through the British National Crime Agency's investigation into a separate case of spot-fixing in which he is also implicated before he could present himself to the PCB regarding the PSL investigation.

However, a PCB source said Friday the board can continue their investigation into Jamshed's alleged involvement in the scandal as NCA has conveyed it has no objection to a second investigation being run simultaneously against the former batsman.

Nasir Jamshed and another man were arrested and then released on bail in Britain amid an investigation into alleged spot-fixing in the Pakistan Super League.

Jamshed was suspended in February from competing in any form of cricket.

PCB Chairman Shaharyar Khan had accused Jamshed of having contacts with English bookies and introducing the two main accused in the PSL scandal to a fixer.

Shahryar Khan claimed Jamshed was the one who introduced Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif to a bookie under the pretext that he was a fan.

Bookies from around the world had been eyeing the PSL, and that PCB had kept an eye on certain players from the beginning of the tournament, the PCB chairman had said.
