India's Dutee Chand cleared to race after 'gender test' rules suspending by Cas

Indian sprinter Dutee Chand is cleared to race after Cas suspended the IAAF's 'gender test' rules.

Indian sprinter Dutee Chand has been cleared to race after the Court of Arbitration for Sport suspended the International Association of Athletics Federations' 'gender test' rules.

The 19-year-old was banned last summer after failing a hormone test, but the IAAF's "hyperandrogenism" test could be scrapped altogether if new evidence is not provided.

According to BBC Sport, Cas has stated that the IAAF should create a new process that allows athletes to compete in one of the female or male event categories.

The ruling added that athletes should not be banned as a "consequence of the natural and unaltered state of their body".
