Cricket: Former captain returns for Zimbabwe after serving a spot-fixing ban

# Cricket: Former Zimbabwean captain Brendan Taylor could represent his country again at the age of 39 after being included in the squad for the second Test against New Zealand. This follows after he completed a three and a half-year ban for spot-fixing during a tour of India. He explained he used cocaine and was then blackmailed, but denied ever going through with any fixes. Taylor played 34 Tests for Zimbabwe from 2004 to 2021, scoring over two-thousand-300 runs. He also represented his country in one-day internationals and T20s.
