"I want this issue settled once and for all. But once we get something in writing from the ECB we will consult our lawyers and than take a decision on attending the hearing," he said yesterday.
The Pakistani spinner was reacting to an ECB statement which said that it had summoned Kaneria and his Essex teammate Mervyn Westfield to attend a disciplinary hearing into charges that both players breached its anti-corruption code of conduct.
The ECB said the chairman of its Cricket Discipline Commission, Gerard Elias QC, will chair the hearing for which no date has been set as yet.
Westfield, 23, in February became the first English county cricketer to be convicted in a court for spot-fixing and was jailed for four months.
Westfield was convicted for accepting a corrupt payment of 6000 pounds to bowl badly in a county match dating back to 2009 against Durham. MORE PTI Cor PM
