Earlier, the PCB alleged that the middle-order batsman, Malik, was involved in suspicious activities, and forwarded his case to the integrity committee for further investigation.
In this regard, the PCB’s integrity committee, which has been working for the clearance of players for the national selection, asked Malik to provide them with his bank statements, and later they inquired him about the missing
£90,000 from his account.
Previously, the star all-rounder, Malik, failed to give any satisfactory answer to the committee when he was asked regarding the missing money; however, as per the sources now, he has provided all the evidence to the integrity
committee, and it is likely that he would be cleared in August 15’s meeting.
