Pakistan batsman Ahmed Shehzad fails drugs test

    Pakistan batsman Ahmed Shehzad has failed a doping test.

    The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced the 26-year-old tested positive for a banned substance in June, but details have only just been released.

    Shehzad played for his country in last month's Twenty20 series in Scotland, where he scored a combined 38 runs as the visitors won both games.

    The PCB is due to issue a charge sheet soon in relation to the incident.
