Zulqarnain says he did no corruption

LONDON: The wicketkeeper Pakistan cricket team Zulqarnain Haider has said that he did whatever he thought to be better for Pakistan. He said he did no corruption, adding that bookies tried to force him for match fixing but he decided otherwise, Geo News reported.

Zulqarnain Haider, the Pakistani wicketkeeper, who fled to London from Dubai in a mystifying way, held a press conference here after bookies alleged him of fixing matches.

He said he did not want to highlight name of any fellow player but claimed that a man issued him threats at his face.

Proposing strict actions to eliminate corruption from Pakistan cricket, he said players found guilty of match-fixing must be banned for lifetime. Pakistan team is ravaged with corruption, he alleged.

He said he was undergoing immense psychological pressure. “I performed well despite serious life threats,” Zulqarnain claimed.

In order to settle this issue soon, Zulqarnain said that he would hold meeting with Wajid Shamsul Hassan, the Pakistan High Commissioner in London.
