Indian pacer Mohammed Shami on Thursday said that he was sure about being proven innocent, after he received a clean chit from Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in connection to match fixing charges levelled against him.
“I was sure I would be proved innocent. I have always tried to give my 100 per cent in the game and I will continue to do so,” said Shami.
Last week, the Supreme Court-appointed Committee of Administrators (CoA) had written to the BCCI’s Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) head Neeraj Kumar to investigate the charges levelled against Shami by his wife.
The CoA, led by Vinod Rai, gave a seven-day deadline to Kumar to submit the report on the issue.
This direction came after cricketer’s wife levelled various allegations, including of match-fixing, against the fast bowler.
Earlier in the day, BCCI’s Anti-Corruption Unit gave him a clean chit over the allegations levelled by his wife Hasin Jahan.
As his wife claimed in a complaint registered against Shami having extra-marital affairs and abusing her physically and mentally.
Though Jahan retracted fixing allegation, the CoA had taken note of it and asked the ACU to investigate the matter.
