Shakib Al Hasan suspended from bowling in tournaments organised by ECB

Bangladesh cricketer Shakib Al Hasan has been suspended from bowling in competitions organised by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) after his action was found to be illegal at independent testing at Loughborough University conducted earlier this month.

Shakib’s action was questioned by the umpires when he played for Surrey in the County Championship. In order to overturn the suspension, he will have to pass an independent reassessment of his action which means his degree of elbow extension will have to be below 15 degrees according to the regulations.

The suspension is dated from December 10, when ECB received Shakib’s suspension order from Loughborough University. In the match for Surrey, Shakib claimed nine wickets in Taunton in September being his first appearance in County Cricket since 2010-11.
