Suspended Pakistan cricketer Salman Butt suffered a blow on Saturday in his fight to have his name cleared over spot-fixing allegations after his lawyer withdrew from the case.

"I don't think the suspended players will get justice, so I have withdrawn from the case," Aftab Gul told Pakistani media of the case which will be heard in Qatar from January 6-11 next year.

Salman, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir were provisionally suspended by the International Cricket Council (ICC) last month over allegations of spot-fixing during Pakistan's tour of England.

The suspension came after revelations in British newspaper News of the World, which claimed several Pakistani players took money to bowl deliberate no-balls during the Lord's Test against England in August. Pakistan are playing SA in UAE at the moment.
