Mohammad Nawaz, the Pakistan all-rounder, has been issued a notice by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday (May 7) for breaching an anti-corruption code. The PCB summoned the 23-year-old to appear before the security and vigilance department.

The spinner was approached during the 2017 Pakistan Super League as well as Pakistan's tour of Australia earlier in the year. Having failed to inform the cricket board about being approached, Nawaz received a summon that stated, "in continuation of its fight against the menace of corruption in cricket."

The notice of demand was issued under Article 4.3 of the PCB Anti-Corruption Code. The release also stated that there will be no further comments made by the officials because of "sensitivity of the matter under question."
