New ICC anti-doping code from Thursday
Dubai: International cricketers must be available for testing at any time and any day of the year once the new and more stringent ICC anti-doping code comes into effect from Thursday (January 1, 2009).
The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday said in a statement that players would have to make themselves available for testing whether it is at ICC events, bilateral series or even out of competition.
The code was recently given unanimous approval by all members of the ICC Board.
“The ICC has a zero-tolerance approach to doping in cricket and this new code serves to reinforce that position,” ICC Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat said.
The adoption of this strengthened ICC Anti-Doping Code coincides with the amendment of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Code. — PTI
