Yasir Hameed News

Discarded test batsman Yasir Hameed is eyeing a return to the Pakistan cricket team after having paid a fine and served a ban for a breach of code of conduct on the England tour last year.

The UK Press Complaint Commission (PCC) has handed Yasir Hameed a victory of sorts by ordering the News of the World to take off from its website a video and story about the Pakistan opener in which he was seen discussing the fall-out from the Lord's spot-fixing scandal as well as an approach by a bookie in 2004.

Pakistan cricket authorities on Friday banned and fined batsman Yasir Hameed for accusing his team-mates of match-fixing and spot-fixing after last year's controversial Lord's Test against England.

Desperate to redeem his career, Pakistan's discarded Test batsman Yasir Hameed has sought an unconditional and public apology from the 'News of the World' newspaper for dragging his name into the spot-fixing scandals.
