LAHORE (Dunya News) – Pakistan left-arm tall fast bowler Mohammad Irfan has returned to domestic cricket after serving his six-month ban.

The 35-year-old was initially barred for one year along with a fine of $1,000 for not timely reporting the bookies’ offers to Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) which he received during the second edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL).

However, the ban was reduced to six months by the board after Irfan successfully managed to adhere to the suspension’s guidelines, and is now free to resume his career.

The pacer will represent WAPDA in the upcoming Quaid-i-Azam Trophy. Let it be known that another character of PSL spot-fixing scandal, Sharjeel Khan, has been banned from cricket for five years by the PCB. According to sources, the opener has decided to file an appeal against the verdict.
