Keith Barker of Hampshire has been slapped with a 12-month ban after a positive test for a banned substance.
Barker, 38, has not featured for his county since an out-of-competition positive test in July 2024 which revealed traces of indapamide, which is used to treat hypertension.
Hampshire said there had been an “administrative error between medical professionals and Barker”.
