A total of four charges were charged against Marlon Samuels in September 2021 for violating the Emirates Cricket Board’s anti-corruption code. The officials of ICC’s anti-corruption department, who investigated these, found Samuels guilty in August 2023. In this context, the ICC has announced that Samuels will be banned from all kinds of cricket affairs for six years. It has been clarified that this ban will come into effect from November 11. Alex Marshall of the ICC HR and Integrity Unit disclosed this decision on Thursday.
“Samuels has played international cricket for nearly two decades, during which he has participated in several anti-corruption sessions. He knows exactly what his responsibilities are under the anti-corruption codes. Although he is now retired from cricket, he was still participating in cricket at the time of the offence. Those who intend to violate the rules face six years. The ban is a strong warning,” ICC officials said.
