The Bangladesh Cricket Board’s bowling action review committee will start its work today with bowlers, whose actions were reported as suspect during recent Dhaka Premier League.
Left-arm spinner Naeem Islam Jr of Mohammedan Sporting Club and Abahani Limited’s off-spinner Amit Kumar will work on the first day with the committee to start rectifying their bowling action, said committee’s chief Jalal Yunus.
‘We will start working tomorrow [today] at 10 am with two bowlers Naeem Islam and Amit Kumar,’ said Jalal.
‘We will setup the required cameras before we start.’
The BCB formed the four-member committee who are tasked with overseeing the procedure related to suspect bowling action in domestic cricket and the remedial system.
The other members of the committee are former national cricketers Omar Khaled Rumi, Golam Faruk Suru and Dipu Roy Chowdhury.
The committee was formed as the BCB planned to weed out the problem in the domestic arena
following the bowling ban of pace bowler
Taskin Ahmed and left-arm spinner Arafat Sunny for illegal action during the ICC World Twenty20 in India.
A total number of 11 players were reported in 18 times, including Sunny, in this year’s Premier League. The committee will work with 10 of them and Sunny is already under the remedial process since he was banned by ICC.
The other reported bowlers are Sanjit Saha, Saifuddin, Mustafizur Rahman, Mainul Islam, Rezaul Karim, Mohammad Sharifullah, Asif Ahmed and Faisal Hossain.
