ICC urges worldwide Kaneria ban



Cricket chiefs on Wednesday called for a global lifetime ban for Pakistan legspinner Danish Kaneria after he was punished for his role in an English spot-fixing scandal.

The International Cricket Council's board said domestic bodies "should recognise and respect the sanctions... including by enforcing and giving effect to them within their own jurisdictions to the fullest extent permitted by law".

Kaneria was banned for life by English authorities for his involvement in the Mervyn Westfield spot-fixing case.
