LONDON, July 28: Bangladesh spin bowler Sanwar Hossain has been reported to the International Cricket Council (ICC) for a suspect bowling action, the sport’s world governing body said on Monday.
An ICC statement said the umpires in the second Test against Australia in Cairns had reported Hossain after reviewing footage of his action on the second day. Australia won the match by an innings and 98 runs on Monday.
“The umpires asked to review footage of Hossain’s action from the second day’s play,” said ICC general manager Dave Richardson. “After reviewing the footage both on-field umpires and the third umpire decided to report the bowler to the ICC.”—Reuters
