Final T20 of series with New Zealand succumbs to rain
Australian women’s cricket stalwart Megan Schutt has been banned for two matches for a prescription medication breach. Schutt has apologised in the wake of her ban, announced on Thursday, which is not related to performance-enhancements.
The 33-year-old strike bowler served the first match of her suspension on Thursday night when Australia’s T20 international with New Zealand was washed out in Sydney. Schutt failed to adhere to requirements under Sports Science and Sports Medicine guidelines with regard to prescription medication, Cricket Australia (CA) said.
