Cricket: West Indies batsman Marlon Samuels has been found guilty of breaching regulations after a probe into allegations of links with a bookmaker. The 27-year-old could now face a two-year ban from the game if the International Cricket Council (ICC) enforces a mandatory ban. The WICB said their disciplinary
committee had found that
Samuels had breached ICC Rules of Conduct 4 in that he "received money, benefit or other reward which could bring him or the game of cricket into disrepute". dismissed. The committee,
which will now pass on its
findings to the ICC, said they
would prefer for Samuels not
to face a ban but to be "bound
over to be of good behaviour
for a period not exceeding two
years".
