Former West Indies’ batter Marlon Samuels charged with breaching ICC's anti-corruption codes

Former West Indies batsman Marlon Samuels has been charged by the International Cricket Council (ICC), on behalf of the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) for breaching four counts of the ECB Anti-Corruption Code for Participants of the T10 League (the ‘Code’). The charges have been pressed for Samuels violating the anti-corruption codes during a T10 tournament in the UAE. According to the ICC Samuels was involved in a breach of Article 2.4.2 – Failing to disclose to the Designated Anti-Corruption Official, the receipt of any gift, payment, hospitality or other benefits that were made or given in circumstances that could bring the Participant or the sport of cricket into disrepute. The other count involves the 40-year-old breaching Article 2.4.3 which amounts to failing to disclose to the Designated Anti-Corruption Official receipt of hospitality with a value of US $750 or more. Along with this, he also breached Article 2.4.6, where he failed to cooperate with the Designated Anti-Corruption Official’s investigation. The last charges on the Jamaica-born, who played 71 Tests, 207 ODIs and 67 T20Is for West Indies are of breaching Article 2.4.7 which relates to obstructing or delaying the Designated Anti-Corruption Official’s investigation by concealing information that may have been relevant to the investigation. “Mr Samuels has 14 days from 21 September to respond to the charges. The ICC will not make any further comment in respect of these charges at this stage,” said the ICC in its press release.

Marlon Samuels takes retirement from professional cricket

Marlon Samuels takes retirement from professional cricket

West Indies cricketer Marlon Samuels has decided to call it a day his professional cricket. An ESPNCricinfo report claims that Samuels had intimated the Cricket West Indies about his decision earlier in June this year. Samuels never had a glittering career that lasted two decades but he showed on numerous occasions about his ability to be a player for big occasions. He was instrumental in making the West Indies champions in the T20 format for twice and was adjudged man of the match in both the finals of ICC World T20 2012 and 2016. He last played for the West Indies in 2018 after making his debut in 2000. He amassed 11,134 international runs with 17 centuries across formats. He was a good bowler and had a knack of taking wickets and ended career with 152 wickets including all formats. Samuels was always rated as one of the finest talents the game has produced but his off-field controversies overshadowed his talents and ended the career with averages across format so unbecoming for a player of his talent and promise. He was sought highly by T20 franchises across the world and he made his IPL debut in the 2012 edition for the then Pune Warriors India. He represented other franchises such as the Delhi Daredevils, Melbourne Renegades and Peshawar Zalmi in his T20 career.
