sThe International Cricket Council has launched an investigation into Friday's third one-day international between England and Pakistan at The Oval.
The game's world governing body says the probe is based on information passed on by The Sun newspaper.
ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat says the match, won by Pakistan by 23 runs, featured "a certain scoring pattern" that warranted further investigation.
"We feel it is incumbent upon us to launch a full enquiry," Lorgat added.
The investigation is the latest blight on this summer's series between the two sides, with four members of the Pakistan team - none of whom were involved in Friday's match - being investigated amid allegations of "spot-fixing".
