West Indies spinner Kraigg Brathwaite reported for suspect bowling action

West Indies off-spinner Kraigg Brathwaite has been reported with a suspect bowling action during the first Test against England.

According to ICC, the match officials’ report handed over to the West Indies team management cited concerns about the legality of the 24-year-old’s bowling action. Brathwaite’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 14 days, and, during this period, Brathwaite is permitted to continue bowling in international cricket until the results of the testing are known.
