WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The former New Zealand fast bowler Doug Bracewell tested positive for cocaine earlier this year and has since served a one-month ban.
Details of the ban were made public for the first time Monday by the New Zealand Sport Integrity Commission.
The 34-year-old who played 28 tests for New Zealand tested positive after a domestic Twenty20 match between Central Districts and Wellington in January. He was named Player of the Match.
The initial three month ban imposed by the Commission was reduced to one month on the condition Bracewell completed a treatment program. The one month ban was then backdated to April, meaning he can now return to cricket.
