Duncan Brede banned for two months

Duncan Brede, a cricketer who represents the Australian Capital Territory, has been banned for two months under Cricket Australia's Anti-Doping Policy after testing positive for prohibited substances. The positive test came from a sample taken from Brede after the game between ACT and the Queensland Academy of Sport at Allan Border Field on November 15, 2004.

The prohibited substances that were present in Brede's sample were the stimulants: amphetamine and methamphetamine. Brede also acknowledged committing a doping offence and waived his right to a hearing while the Australian board offered him help with counselling. The two month ban is effective from January 21.
