July 12 (CRICKETNMORE) - Former South Africa fast bowler Lonwabo Tsotsobe has been banned for eight years for his role in the 2015 corruption case during the Ram Slam, South Africa's domestic T20 competition. Cricket South Africa (CSA) said the 33-year-old admitted "several breaches" of its anti-corruption code.
"Whilst no fix actually took place, it is clear that he was active in plans to participate in spot-fixing," said CSA chief executive Haroon Lorgat.

Tsotsobe has apologised for his involvement and said: "I was, at the time, in a very vulnerable financial state and this dilemma too easily persuaded me to participate in spot-fixing. There are no words to describe the regret I have in relation to my actions."
