The Jamaica Anti-Doping Commission (JADCO) gave West Indies batter John Campbell a four-year suspension for breaking an anti-doping guideline, according to Reuters.

An accusation of evading, denying, or neglecting to submit to sample collection was addressed in the 18-page ruling from a three-person independent panel on Friday.

John Campbell played in 20 tests, six one-day internationals, and two Twenty20 matches for the West Indies before JADCO accused him of refusing to give a blood sample at his Kingston residence in April.

Campbell, a forceful left-handed batter who parallels his attitude to Chris Gayle’s, was selected for the West Indies team to compete in the Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand in 2010. He competed for the Jamaica Under-19 squad, which won the regional championships.
