ICC Withdraws Asif and Amir From Awards List

Dubai: The International Cricket Council has withdrawn the names of suspended Pakistan fast bowlers Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir from next month's ICC awards in India.

An ICC spokesman said Friday that both pacemen were struck off the nominations list.

Amir was nominated in the emerging player of the year category while Asif was nominated for test player of the year.

Pakistan test captain Salman Butt, Asif and Amir were questioned by police on Friday after being charged and suspended by the ICC on Thursday.

Last week, a British tabloid accused the three Pakistan cricketers of intentionally bowling no-balls during the fourth test against England at Lord's.
