BRENDAN Taylor has bounced back from his three-and- a-half-year suspension by the International Cricket Council and will be part of the Chevrons second test match against New Zealand.
The first test match started started on Wednesday and the second test match is sheduled for 7-11 August at Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo.
“He became available for selection following the completion of a three-and-a-half-year suspension imposed by the International Cricket Council (ICC), after he accepted responsibility for breaching both the ICC Anti-Corruption Code and the ICC Anti-Doping Code,” said ZC in a statement.
“Since then, Taylor has undergone a thorough rehabilitation programme and has consistently demonstrated a sincere commitment to personal growth, accountability and restoring trust.”
ZC Managing Director Givemore Makoni said: “Brendan has endured an incredibly difficult chapter in his life and shown genuine remorse, coupled with a powerful determination to make things right – not just for himself but for the good of the game in Zimbabwe.
“He has worked tirelessly behind the scenes, remained disciplined throughout his rehabilitation and has now rightfully earned his place back in the national setup.
“We’re happy to see him in a good space again. His experience, skill and passion for the game will bring immense value to the team.”
