Bangladesh fast bowler must undergo testing within 21 days
Bangladesh’s fast bowler Al-Amin Hossain has been reported with a suspected illegal bowling action during his side’s 10 wickets loss in the first Test against the West Indies in St Vincent.
The match officials’ report, which was handed over to Bangladesh team manager Habibul Bashar after the Test concluded on Tuesday, cited concerns about the legality of the 24-year-old’s bowling action.
Al-Amin’s bowling action will now be scrutinised further under the ICC process relating to suspected illegal bowling actions reported in Tests, ODIs and T20Is. He is required to undergo testing within 21 days, and, during this period, Al-Amin is permitted to continue bowling in international cricket until the results of the testing are known.
