Police question three Pakistan cricketers about 'betting scam'

Pakistan cricketers Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Asif and Salman Butt have been questioned under caution by police in London over allegations of corruption.

The trio were quizzed separately over claims that deliberate no-balls were bowled in the recent fourth Test against England at Lord's.

Test skipper Butt was the last of the three to be questioned on Friday.

The trio are provisionally suspended by the International Cricket Council for "alleged irregular behaviour".

All three have been released without charge by police.

BBC Sports Editor David Bond reports.
