"A notice has been issued to Boje but no date has been fixed on which he should appear," DCP, Crime Branch, Madhu Tiwari told PTI.

Boje has been asked to make himself available for investigation in the match fixing case under Section 160 of CrPc, according to Delhi Police spokesman Rajan Bhagat.

The 34-year-old Boje, who retired from international cricket last year, is playing for 'Hyderabad Heroes' in the rebel series which began on November 30 in Panchkula.

Boje along with late South African skipper Hansie Cronje and opener Herschelle Gibbs was at the centre of the scam and avoided touring India for cricket series on previous occasions.

Delhi Police had intercepted Cronje's conversation with bookies in India in which he later admitted to striking deals for throwing away matches.
