The tainted Pakistan trio of Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir will face a trial after they were charged with conspiracy to obtain and accept corrupt payments by the UK prosecution service in the spot-fixing scandal that rocked world cricket last year. The three cricketers, who have been suspended since September last by International Cricket Council, were issued summons yesterday by Britain's Crown Prosecution Service to a first hearing at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court on March 17.Bookmaker Mazhar Majeed, who made the revelation in a 'News of the World' sting operation that the three players took money to bowl deliberate no-balls during the Lord's Test between Pakistan and England in August last year, was also charged with the same offences.The framing of the charges came just a day before an International Cricket Council tribunal announces its conclusions on the case in Doha today. The tribunal interrogated the players in Doha last month.
