Lahore Lions' Adnan Rasool reported for suspect bowling action

Rasool has been put on the warning list, but can continue to play and bowl for his team in a match.

HYDERABAD: While the national team reels from the suspension of Saeed Ajmal owing to his illegal bowling action, Pakistan Cricket Board’s scant attention to this subject in domestic cricket has come to haunt domestic side Lahore Lions in the midst of their Champions League T20 stint. On Monday, Lions' bowler Adnan Rasool was reported for a suspected illegal bowling action.

During the Oppo CLT20 match against Kolkata Knight Riders in Hyderabad on Sunday evening, on-field umpires found Rasool’s action as suspect. After the match ended, on-field umpires Kumar Dharamsena and C. Shamshuddin along with third umpire Anil Chaudhary, reported the bowler.

“Under the CLT20 Suspected Illegal Bowling Action policy, Rasool may request an Official Assessment from the BCCI Suspect Bowling Action Committee,” a release said on Monday.

“Rasool has been placed on the warning list and may continue to be selected to play and bowl for his team in a match.”

Under the CLT20 Suspected Illegal Bowling Action policy, if a player receives a report while on the warning list, the player shall be suspended from bowling for the remainder of the tournament and from bowling in any matches organised by the BCCI until such date as he is cleared.

A player suspended from bowling may continue to be selected to play in matches, however he will not be entitled to bowl.

Lions were beaten by Kolkata Knigh Riders by four wickets as they overhauled the Pakistani outfit's total of 151 runs.
