International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday suspended Team India’s middle-order batsman Ambati Rayudu from bowling in international cricket.
Ambati Rayudu was asked by ICC to get his bowling action tested after he was reported for a suspected action during the first One Day International match of the three-match ODI series against Australia on January 13, 2019, at the Sydney Cricket ground (SCG). However, Rayudu did not appear to get his bowling action tested within 14 days of being reported. That’s why, as per Clause 4.2 of the ICC regulations, he has been suspended from bowling in international cricket with immediate effect.
