ISLAMABAD (AP) Pakistan leg spinner Yasir Shah will appeal against his suspension for testing positive for a banned substance.
The Pakistan Cricket Board told the ICC on Sunday and the game's governing body will now form a tribunal to hear Shah's appeal.
Shah was suspended last month after his ''A'' sample contained a banned substance - chlortalidone - which is on the World Anti-Doping Agency prohibited list.
Local reports say Shah took his wife's blood pressure medication without knowing that it contained the banned substance.
