Mushtaq, who was censured by the Justice Qayyum Report into match fixing in 2000 for bringing the name of Pakistan team into disrepute by associating with gamblers, begins his job of England's new spin coach in the Caribbean.

However, ICC raised questions into his appointment due to his connection with match-fixing scandal. Ahmed insisted that the charges against him were not proved.

"I'm not disappointed this has all come up again, I don't think in that way. I just look after my own things and try to pass the love of the game to others," said Mushtaq, who played 85 Tests for Pakistan.

"I hope it doesn't stay with me for the rest of my career. There wasn't any evidence. If there was why did I work for Pakistan? I was assistant coach for three Test series. I was assistant coach to Bob Woolmer during the World Cup here, so there was no story there," Mushtaq was quoted as saying by 'Daily Telegraph'.

"Wherever you go in the world you need evidence to make accusations, and when you don't have any evidence you cannot assume any wrongdoing. I'm a very satisfied man. I never associated with gamblers and never want to."

Justice Qayyum had said that while evidence was insufficient he recommended Mushtaq be "censured, kept under close watch and not be given any office of responsibility in the team or on the board".

The judge fined him pound 3,700 and recommended that he never hold any office of responsibility within cricket. The ECB thought otherwise and said that Mushtaq had given 10 years of "blameless service" for Sussex and Pakistan.

In a recent letter to ECB, the International Cricket Council has insisted that Mushtaq sign up to the ICC's Code of conduct attend an anti-corruption refresher programme and make available an itemised phone bill should their officers wish to see one.

Mushtaq said so far no one had asked to take a peek of his phone calls details though the ECB were thought to be scrutinising his calls more closely than their other employees.

"These 10 days before the Test series are important because spinners need motivation and goals. So the importance is mental rather than technical. Hopefully I will pass on my experience to the spinners in that time," Mushtaq said as he gave tips to his spinners at St Kitts ahead of the first Test against the West Indies on February 4.
