A Pakistan court on Wednesday restored suspended cricket board chief Zaka Ashraf, official media said, the latest development in an embarrassing legal scandal in the cricket-mad nation.
The process, which began after Ashraf was suspended following dubious elections in May last year, has tarnished the reputation of the country's cricket authorities and led to widespread ridicule.
The Islamabad High Court accepted Ashraf's appeal to be reinstated, with a detailed judgement expected on Thursday.
But despite the judgement, confusion reigned at the PCB's headquarters in Lahore. The board's legal adviser Taffazul Rizvi said he could not comment until he gets a detailed judgement. "Till I read the full judgement I can't say whether Ashraf has been restored conditionally or otherwise,"
