  • Latest suspect: Adnan Rasool.

    Lahore Lions off-spinner spin­ner Adnan Ra­sool has been reported for suspect action during his team’s Champions League Twenty20 match against Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday.

    Rasool is placed on a warn­ing list, but can continue to play and bowl in the tourna­ment.

    However, according to the CLT20 Suspected Illegal Bowling Action policy, if he receives a report while on the warning list, he will be suspended from bowling for the remainder of the tourna­ment and from bowling in any matches organised by the BCCI until he is cleared.

    Rasool bowled four overs, for 28 runs and took one wicket, as Lahore suffered a four-wicket defeat.

    Interestingly, Rasool is among a clutch of spinners Pakistan were looking at to replace star bowler Saeed Ajmal, who was banned for illegal action recently.
