Kuhnemann's Bowling Action Under ICC Review

Australian spinner Matthew Kuhnemann has been reported for a suspect bowling action following the second Test match against Sri Lanka in Galle, where he emerged as the leading wicket-taker with 16 wickets at an average of 17.18. This is the first time Kuhnemann's bowling action has been questioned in his professional career, which began in 2017. The International Cricket Council (ICC) requires Kuhnemann to undergo testing within three weeks to determine the legality of his action, with a biomechanist's analysis being key. Until then, he is suspended from bowling in international cricket but can continue playing domestically. Cricket Australia has expressed its support for Kuhnemann as they work with the ICC and independent experts to resolve the matter. If his action is deemed illegal, Kuhnemann must modify it and pass further assessments before returning to international play.
