South African spinner reported for suspect action on ODI debut as Zampa punished for swearing

South African spinner Prenelan Subrayen has been reported for a suspect bowling action after his debut one-day international, as Australian leg-spinner Adam Zampa was reprimanded for using an audible obscenity in the same match on Tuesday night.

Subrayen, who returned 1-46 in South Africa’s opening ODI win over Australia in Cairns, was cited by match officials over concerns with the legality of his action.

“The match officials’ report specified concerns about the legality of Subrayen’s action,” the International Cricket Council said in a statement.

The 31-year-old has two weeks to undergo an independent assessment at an ICC-accredited laboratory but can continue bowling until the results are known.
