Misbah said while there was no doubt about Umar's potential and talent as a batsman but he needs to reassess his priorities as a professional cricketer.
The PCB Anti-Corruption officials had charged Umar within two separate cases of not reporting an approach made to him to spot fix matches in the Pakistan Super League 5.
Umar Akmal last appearance came in last October during a home T20 series against Sri Lanka and before that he also played in the March-April, 2019 one-day series against Australia in the UAE.
Umar Akmal has been told to return the payment cheque he received prior to the start of the Pakistan Super League from the PCB.
Umar Akmal now cannot take part in any cricket-related activity pending the investigation being carried out by PCB's Anti-Corruption Unit.
Recently, Umar posted a photo on Twitter with former Pakistan player Abdul Razzak and wrote: "Mother from another brother."
The PCB has said in a statement that after concluding its proceedings into the alleged misconduct by Umar during a fitness test and after listening to all the parties involved.
Umar Akmal landed himself in controversy after making crude remarks to trainer Yasir during the skin-folding test.
The junior Akmal, who is reported to have exposed himself in frustration after failing to pass one of the fitness tests, is now faced with the prospect of being banned from the country's next domestic tournament.
Pakistan's comeback man Umar Akmal had a poor outing yet again as he was dismissed for another duck against Sri Lanka in the ongoing T20I series.
Pakistan head coach Misbah-ul-Haq has insisted that the critics need to be patient with comeback men Umar Akmal and Ahmed Shehzad.
The three T20Is between Pakistan and Sri Lanka will be played on October 5, 7 and 9 at the Gadaffi Stadium in Lahore.
Akmal and Shehzad, who had been out-of-favour with the previous selection committee, are now among the probables for Pakistan for the series against Sri Lanka.
Umar reported that a former Test batsman, who was part of the Winnipeg Hawks management had approached him and asked him to play a role in fixing some games of the league.
Pakistan will declare their team for the 2019 World Cup on April 18 and will travel to England on April 23.
The Pakistan Cricket Board said on Monday that team manager, Talat Ali had held a hearing at which Umar pleaded guilty and also apologised for his actions.
Finch was happy his team continued its fine ODI form from India, where it won the series 3-2 earlier this month.
The PCB said in a statement that Akmal should appear before its anti-corruption unit on Wednesday and explain his comments.
PCB Chairman, Najam Sethi said he had imposed the sanctions with a heavy heart but with the hope that it served as a precedent for all cricketers, who should be mindful of their obligations and the consequences of their actions.
Umar Akmal had an altercation with Pakistan's head coach Mickey Arthur at the National Cricket Academy last month over practicing there.
