Salman Butt Wants Cricket Ban Reduced

Description:The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Switzerland on Friday (February 8) heard an appeal by former Pakistan cricket captain Salman Butt against his 10-year ban for spot-fixing. The penalty, with five years suspended, was imposed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) in February 2011 after Butt was found of guilty with two team mates of deliberately bowling of no-balls as part of an illegal betting network during the fourth Test between Pakistan and England at Lord's in August 2010.
