New Delhi, Sep 15 (IANS) Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Ijaz Butt is scheduled to meet International Cricket Council (ICC) president Sharad Pawar here Thursday to discuss the spot-fixing controversy and other issues.

It is learnt that the two will meet Thursday to discuss the spot-fixing controversy which broke out during Pakistan's tour of England and also the resumption of bilateral cricket ties between India and Pakistan.

Butt's visit comes in the wake of the Lord's spot-fixing scandal in which Pakistani cricketers Salman Butt, Mohammad Aamer and Mohammad Asif were suspened by the ICC after they allegedly under-performed during the fourth Test at Lord's.
