LAHORE, Dec 11 (AFP) - A Pakistan commission investigating match-fixing in cricket will ask the Australian Cricket Board to let Shane Warne and Mark Waugh appear before it, officials said Friday.

Confessions by Warne and Waugh that they took money from a bookmaker to provide information on weather and pitches in 1994 have given the inquiry a "new turn," Pakistan Cricket Board's legal adviser Ali Sibtain Fazli said2E

"What has transpired from their confessions has changed the scenario and the commission has asked me to request the Australian players' reappearance," Fazli told AFP.

The request will be made after the Pakistani board agrees to bear the travel expenses of the two Australian players, he said.

Warne, Mark Waugh and another Australian, Tim May, had alleged that former Pakistan captain Salim Malik offered them bribes to throw matches during Australia's tour of Pakistan in 1994-95.

Waugh appeared before the commission here on October 6 and repeated his allegations against Malik.

The inquiry judge Malik Mohammad Qayyum said Tuesday that the disclosures of the Australian players cast suspicion on their claims against Malik.

Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Khalid Mahmood has said the confessions made the allegations against Malik "dubious."
