Pakistan batsman Umar Akmal could have a part of his three-year anti-corruption ban suspended when the judge heading the Cricket Board’s disciplinary Panel gives out his detailed judgement soon, a source in the PCB has said. After the hour-long hearing of the panel held on Monday in Lahore, where Umar appeared himself to plead his case, Justice Miran Chohan announced a three-year ban on the batsman for failing to report corrupt approaches. “People are jumping to conclusions about the three-year ban but the detailed order is yet to come out. Umar might eventually get a three-year ban with two years suspended or something like that,” the source told PTI.He said there are chances the judge will suspend most part of the three-year ban given the clauses under which Umar has been charged by the Anti-Corruption Unit and also given his past track record.”Umar could get a suspended sentence in his three-year ban because this will also test him as an individual to see how he behaves and conducts himself in future,” the source said.
