Mohammad Amir, the banned fast bowler, could start playing competitive cricket as early as next month, with the ICC set to approve his reintegration following the introduction of a revised anti-corruption code. The ICC had interviewed Amir on Friday about his banned years, to determine if they could find any difference in the player.
The PCB had written a letter to the ICC in November, requesting that the governing body review the conditions of Amir's spot-fixing ban and grant immediate relief to the player so that he could return to domestic cricket before the end of his five-year ban in September 2015.

I got the feeling that he was a young lad who was manipulated by older heads - perhaps a degree of clemency is appropriate in this case?
