In a decision released on Thursday, the Sports Tribunal said the Hamilton Wanderers player had tested positive for Probenecid. The World Anti-Doping Agency’s prohibited substance list includes Probenecid under the heading diuretics and masking agents. Clout’s positive test was dated December 2, 2018, the same day he played for Hamilton Wanderers in their loss to Auckland City at their Porritt Stadium home. His ‘B’ sample also tested positive He was provisionally suspended on February 5, 2019, and played no further part in last summer’s ISPS Handa Premiership. The proposed punishment was accepted by the tribunal, with Clout now banned from participating in competitive sport until December 2, 2020. Australian cricket commentator and former captain Ian Chappell has revealed he is undergoing treatment for skin cancer but claimed his prognosis was positive. Chappell, 75, told News Corp he had just completed five weeks of intense radiation therapy and had skin cancers removed from his shoulder, neck and underarm. ‘‘I didn’t tell too many people early on. Mainly because I just wasn’t sure what the radiotherapy would involve and how weary I’d be.’’ He said he had become used to skin cancers over the years and was comforted that none had been melanomas.
