Mohammad Rizwan takes Pakistan probe to ICC, questions whether PCB followed anti-corruption procedure

Ex-Pakistan skipper Mohammad Rizwan has turned to the International Cricket Council's Anti-Corruption Unit to query whether proper anti-corruption protocols were maintained by the Pakistan Cricket Board during an inquiry concerning him. This follows the Lahore High Court turning down his challenge regarding the legal authority of the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency, which has been looking into possible ties to illicit wagering services.

The veteran wicketkeeper, boasting nearly 250 appearances for Pakistan spanning more than ten years without any prior betting-related controversies, queried if global and English anti-graft bodies were informed when his mobile phone was confiscated in the United Kingdom, transported across borders, and forensically analyzed.
