Saliya Saman Banned From All Forms Of Cricket For Five Years Under Anti-Corruption Code
Abu Dhabi T10 League: Former Sri Lankan domestic cricketer Saliya Saman has been banned from all forms of cricket for five years after an ICC Anti-Corruption Tribunal found him guilty of breaching the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) Anti-Corruption Code.
Saman was among eight people charged in September 2023 for breaching the Code during the 2021 Abu Dhabi T10 League, where attempts to corrupt matches in the tournament were disrupted by the ICC, the Designated Anti-Corruption Official (DACO) for the purposes of the ECB’s Code for the tournament.
The ban, as per the ICC statement on Friday, is backdated to 13 September 2023, when Saman was provisionally suspended. “Following a full hearing and presentation of written and oral argument, the Tribunal found Saman guilty of: Article 2.1.1 which states, ‘Being party to an attempt to fix, contrive or influence improperly matches or aspects of matches in the Abu Dhabi T10 2021’.”
