IPL 2020: KKR's Sunil Narine sweats it out in the nets after being called for suspect action
#2 Sunil Narine
KKR spinner Sunil Narine was reported for illegal bowling action during his match against KXIP. This action was reported by the on-field umpires. Narine has gone to Carl Crowe to help rework his action for the remaining games of the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Narine went to the Englishman when he was called for a suspect action in 2014. According to sources close to ANI, the Spinner has been sweating it out in the nets to ensure his return to the bowling crease at the earliest.
"Crowe was the man Narine went to after being called for suspect action back in 2014-2015 and with him in the unit, it was but obvious that the two would try to correct his action to ensure that the spinner can return to bowling after being called in the game against Kings XI Punjab. They have been working overtime be it at the nets or while analysing angles with data analysts," the source explained.
Crowe is Narine's sole option as the West Indian cannot go for a biomechanical analysis of his action at the ICC and BCCI accredited Sri Ramachandra Arthroscopy and Sports Sciences Centre (SRASSC) in Chennai as that would mean fresh quarantine period applying and would ultimately see Narine missing the remaining tournament. The spinner already sat out the game against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Sharjah on Monday.
IPL released a statement when the on-field umpires reported the action. This statement read: The report was made by the on-field umpires according to the IPL’s Suspected Illegal Bowling Action Policy. Narine will be placed on the warning list and is permitted to continue to bowl in the tournament. Another report will result in Narine being suspended from bowling in the IPL 2020 until cleared by the BCCI Suspect Bowling Action Committee."
