Islamabad United replace Andre Russell with Steven Finn
English fast bowler was brought in as Andre Russell had to be replaced due to the doping ban
LAHORE (Dunya News) - Islamabad United added English fast bowler Steven Finn to their rooster in the place of West Indian all-rounder Andre Russell, reported Dunya News.
Andre Russell was an integral part of Islamabad United team in the first edition but had to be dropped after getting banned due to using the prohibited substance.
The two-times Twenty20 World Cup winner was revealed to have committed the violation 11 months ago after registering three filing failures in 2015. That constitutes a failed drugs test under World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) rules.
Islamabad United are the defending champions of the competition, which would be held from 9 February to 7 March.
