said.

“Everything will come to light when the ICC finishes its investigations,” said
Sears. “I cannot give you the name now,” he told reporters, alongside the national cricket coach Mike
Hesson, on Saturday.
The ICC declined to give the name of the cricketer, the reason for the
investigations, nor how soon they would end.
“We do not comment on the ICC matters,” Colin
Gibson, head of media and communications at the ICC, said in an emailed response to Reuters.
