SRH former player Taylor will be free to resume his involvement in the game on 28 July 2025, the statement added.

Taylor said he got into substance abuse after the scarring incident and that he was checking into a rehabilitation center to get over it. “We had drinks and during the course of the evening they openly offered me cocaine.
