Ex-Zimbabwe skipper Brendan Taylor has been hit with a three-and-a-half year ban from cricket by the ICC after he accepted breaching the governing body's anti-corruption and anti-doping codes.
Taylor, 35, who made more than 200 appearances for Zimbabwe and also represented Nottinghamshire, released a statement earlier this week where he admitted taking cocaine and claimed he was approached for spot fixing.
Taylor stated he was approached in 2019 by an Indian businessman and was paid $15,000 as "a 'deposit' for spot fixing".
