Melbourne, Aug.31 (ANI): Former International Cricket Council (ICC) boss, Malcolm Speed has said there is a "compelling" case to suspend Pakistan from world cricket.
Speed, who was ICC CEO from 2001 till 2008, said suspension was a "serious" option for Pakistan.
"It looks as though it is endemic that several of the team members are involved and have been for some time," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Speed as telling ABC radio on Monday.
"So, perhaps they need a rest. It looks a fairly compelling case," Speed said.
Speed said corruption still surrounded cricket.
"Corrupt book makers and gamblers are still out there. (It's) great that they've been caught in England where there is a very sophisticated legal system that deals with conspiracy and specifically with cheating in sport. So, I see that as a major positive," Speed added.
"I would have liked it to have happened when I was involved with ICC but it didn't happen at that time," he said.(ANI)
