Kraigg Brathwaite reported for suspect bowling action

The Windies’ off-spinner Kraigg Brathwaite has been reported for suspect bowling action during the first Test against England, which the hosts won at Edgbaston on Saturday.

The match officials’ report, which was handed over to the Windies’ 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.
