ICC did not properly consider appeals: Butt, Amir

Pakistan cricketers Salman Butt and Mohammad Amir on Monday accused the ICC of not really listening to their appeals against provisional bans for an alleged involvement in spot-fixing.

Salman Butt and the 18-year-old`Amir returned to Pakistan on Monday and expressed their disappointment at the!outcome of the hearing, which was overseen by code of co 7/8duct commission chimf Michael Beloff.

"They heard us but (it was) as if 'say whatever you want to say, we have come with a decision,"' Butt said. "Their decision was not based on a single piece of evidence against us.

"We requested from them the next date of the hearing but they didn't give us it)."

Amir said he felt the ICC had made up its mind before the hearing that the suspension would remain in place.
