Match-fixing allegations "Indian propaganda"-Pakistan

Pakistan National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Sports has rejected all match-fixing allegations leveled against captain Younis Khan and coach Intikhab Alam, saying it was all Indian propaganda to tarnish Pakistan cricket’s image.

The committee, which had summoned Khan and Alam along with the Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ijaz Butt to explain the reason behind the team’s defeat in the ICC Champions Trophy, said there was no authenticity in the match-fixing allegations.

It blamed the Indian media for fanning the issue and said it was an Indian propaganda to tarnish Pakistan cricket’s image.
