London, Sep 25(ANI): The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is reportedly considering legal action against England batsman Jonathan Trott for allegedly calling Pakistan fast bowler Wahab Riaz "a match-fixer".
The incident occurred ahead of Monday's fourth ODI at Lord's, when the two players clashed in the nets and had to be separated by England batting coach Graham Gooch.
The altercation ended with Trott grabbing Riaz by the throat, and the prospect of an all-out fight was only averted by Gooch, who pushed Trott away before putting an arm around the Pakistani.
"There is a strong likelihood that the PCB, in a tit-for-tat response to the threat by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to sue (PCB chairman Ijaz) Butt over his remarks against English players, will go after Trott," The Telegraph quoted a source, as saying.
The ECB is believed to be furious over Butt's claim that England had 'thrown' the third ODI at The Oval. (ANI)
