Three more cricketers have been questioned by the Pakistan Cricket Board's anti-corruption unit over match-fixing concerns in the Pakistan Super League Twenty20 competition.
They are fast bowler Mohammad Irfan and left-arm spinner Zulfiqar Babar - who have both played Test cricket - and opening batsman Shazaib Hassan, who represented Pakistan in a handful of one-day matches in 2010.
They will continue to play for their respective franchise in the Twenty20 league in the United Arab Emirates, PSL chairman Najam Sethi said on Saturday.
Sethi said efforts will continue "to protect the PSL from the menace of corruption."
The news makes a total of five players who have come under the gaze of cricket's anti-corruption investigators for alleged activities in the PSL.
On Friday, batsmen Sharjeel Khan and Khalid Latif were provisionally suspended from the league and ordered to return home.
The Pakistan Cricket Board, in suspending the pair on Friday said it was investigating "an international syndicate which is believed to be attempting to corrupt the PSL."
"This investigation is a clear demonstration of our determination to drive corruption out of our sport," Sethi said
