Danish Kaneria.

London – Former Pakistan leg-spinner Danish Kaneria and seamer Mervyn Westfield have both been found guilty of offences by an England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) disciplinary panel, a statement said Friday.

The statement added: “The panel will now consider the appropriate sanction against both players and a decision is expected later today (Friday).”

Westfield was jailed for four months in February after admitting he accepted money to under-perform during a Pro40 match between Essex and Durham in 2009.

The 23-year-old seamer named Kaneria – arrested with him in 2010 but released without charge – as the link between bookmakers and players.

Kaneria was found guilty of two charges following a contested hearing which started in London on Monday.

Westfield was also charged with one offence under ECB regulations to which he pleaded guilty. – Sapa-AFP
