Sri Lankan batsman Kusal Perera free to play again as ICC withdraws doping charges | Latest News & Updates at Daily News & Analysis
The International Cricket Council has announced that it has withdrawn disciplinary charges against Sri Lanka batsman Kusal Perera and lifted the provisional suspension previously imposed on him for alleged use of performance enhancing substances.
Perera is, therefore, now free to return to domestic and international cricket without restriction and with immediate effect. The ICC has made the decision after the WADA-accredited laboratory in Qatar yesterday withdrew its original Adverse Analytical Finding following investigations. ICC Chief Executive David Richardson said: “We wish to make it clear that there is no evidence that Mr Perera has ever used performance-enhancing substances and we wish him well in his future cricketing endeavours.”
