The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Thursday issued a notice to tainted cricketer Nasir Jamshed, charging him with multiple violations of Articles 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.1.4 and 2.4.4 of the PCB’s Anti-Corruption Code.

Jamshed, believed to be the prime suspect in the infamous Pakistan Super League (PSL) spot-fixing case of 2017, is currently serving a one-year ban for obstruction of investigation and non-cooperation with the PCB's Anti-Corruption Unit on the matter.

The PCB has now moved to level the main charges against Jamshed, who has a period of fourteen days to respond to the notice.

Jamshed is accused of masterminding a spot-fixing scandal, which came to light during the first week of the 2017 PSL and has since seen Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif slapped with multiple-year bans.

In his defence, Jamshed had previously claimed that the charges against him in the Pakistan Super League spot-fixing scandal are "flimsy and ridiculous."
