Bangladesh’s Arafat, Taskin suspended from bowling

Arafat’s analysis revealed that the elbow extension for majority of his deliveries had exceeded the 15 degrees’ level of tolerance permitted while not all of Taskin’s deliveries were legal.

As a consequence of these suspensions, the Bangladesh can replace the two bowlers in the squad for the remainder of the World T20. 

Arafat and Taskin were reported after their side’s opening match in the World Twenty20 against the Netherlands in Dharamsala on March 9. The bowlers were assessed independently at the ICC-accredited testing centre at Sri Ramachandra Medical College. Arafat’s bowling action was analysed on 12 March, while Taskin’s test was performed on 15 March.
