February 26, 2025 04:52 pm
The International Cricket Council (ICC) today confirmed that the bowling action of Australia spinner Matthew Kuhnemann has been found to be legal, and the player can continue bowling in international cricket.
Kuhnemann, who bowls left-arm spin, had been reported for a suspected illegal bowling action during the second Test against Sri Lanka in Galle that ended on 9 February.
He subsequently underwent an independent bowling assessment at the National Cricket Centre in Brisbane on 15 February, where it was revealed that the amount of elbow extension for all his deliveries was within the 15-degree level of tolerance permitted under the ICC Illegal Bowling Regulations.
