England denies Pakistan a neutral venue

Pakistan might have to pay a heavy price for the spot-fixing scandal as England will not serve as a neutral venue for Pakistan again next summer, a media report said.Sources say that the ECB made this decision in reaction to the allegations of PCB Chairman Ejaz Butt against the English cricket team. During his visit to India, Butt suggested that England's players had accepted a bribe to lose the third ODI at The Oval, but the ECB said the allegations were wholly irresponsible and completely without foundation.
