KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian badminton ace Lee Zii Jia and officials struck a deal on Tuesday (Jan 25) to lift a ban imposed on the world number seven last week after he quit the national team

The 23-year-old cut ties with Malaysia's badminton association this month to play as an independent, but the body hit back by prohibiting him from competing in tournaments for two years.

After crisis talks with the Badminton Association of Malaysia , Lee said he had received president Norza Zakaria's"blessings" to go independent."I hope this conclusion unites us as Malaysians and badminton fans." The body's deputy president Jaharbedeen Mohamed Yunoos confirmed an agreement had been reached to lift the ban, and said the terms would be disclosed next week., which prevented him from playing in all tournaments sanctioned by the Badminton World Federation .
