Pakistan's tainted former captain, Salman Butt, and some other Pakistani players are again in the spotlight after the International Cricket Council's (ICC) Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) confirmed it was investigating the Ajman All Stars T20 League held recently. The footage of the match which apparently was broadcast don t include any of the Pakistani players. Butt who was captain when the spot-fixing scandal broke out in England in late 2010 confirmed he had played two matches of the league. "But they told me it was a private tournament and not sanctioned so no NOC was required to play. When I went there I realised it was just a badly managed street level event and it made no sense to me," said Butt.
