The International Cricket Council have announced that nine people have been charged with alleged match-fixing in the Bangladesh Premier League.
Following an investigation, it has emerged that the league's anti-corruption code has been breached in relation to a case involving the Dhaka Gladiators.
Seven people have been charged with alleged match-fixing and spot-fixing, while two others have been charged with failing to report approaches made to them with regards to fixing a match.
ICC chief executive David Richardson said: "The evidence uncovered is a grave reminder of the need for the sport to remain vigilant against the continuing threat of corruption, and for players and support personnel to take personal responsibility for protecting the integrity of the game."
Bangladesh Cricket Board president Nazmul Hassan added: "The BCB is committed to a zero-tolerance approach towards corruption in the sport and has demonstrated its resolve to deal robustly with such matters by engaging the services of the ICC and its ACSU."
The nine people in question have 14 days to plead guilty or defend their case.
