Former Pakistan Test cricketer Salman Butt has affirmed that it was not easy to remain disassociated from cricket and also advised young aspirants not to indulge in any 'illegal practices'.
The 30-year-old said that youngsters should keep the punishment factor in mind before indulging in such activities.
Butt confirmed that he have already indicated his availability to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and was ready to fulfill all the necessary requirement of the tribunal, the Dawn reported.
The three players(Mohammad Asif, Salman Butt and Mohammad Amir) were found guilty of various offences of corrupt behavior relating to the Lords Test played between England and Pakistan in August 2010 by the independent Anti-Corruption Tribunal on February 5, 2011.
