Former Pakistan pace bowler Mohammad Asif has agreed to share details of spot fixing with the Anti-Corruption and Security Unit of the International Cricket Council.

According to stuff.co.nz, Asif, 30, who finally admitted last week to his role in spot-fixing during the 2010 Lord's test against England, submitted an apology and agreed to cooperate with the authorities after meeting with Pakistan Cricket Board officials on Monday.

The ICC banned him for seven years, along with two others who were suspended, including former captain Salman Butt and fast bowler Mohammad Amir in early 2011, the report said.

The trio later served jail sentences in Britain after being found guilty of cheating and corruption by a crown court, the report added.

Meanwhile, Asif said that he did not know whether he would get a chance to play for Pakistan again but whatever happened, he wanted everyone to know that he could make amends for his actions.
