Former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar said that the anti-corruption unit of PCB is consist of ineligible people.

Akhtar said that the method with which the board conducted the investigation has saved the batsmen from imprisonment.

“PSL fixing case should be resolved as per the law and should be investigated thoroughly [for future as well],” he added.

Meanwhile, the former pacer also said that Shahid Afridi does deserve some sort of acknowledgement from the board since the all-rounder retired this week following a 20-year career for Pakistan.
