Pakistan Cricket Board yesterday cleared former captain Shoaib Malik over allegations of illegal earnings, paving his way for a return to international cricket.



The 29-year-old Malik has not been selected for Pakistan since last summer's tour of England after he failed to account for money held in an overseas bank account before an integrity committee of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

"I am very happy as the prayers of my mother, family and my wife have been answered," Malik, who married Indian tennis star Sania Mirza last year, told AFP.
