Kuhnemann's Bowling Action Under Scrutiny on cricinfo
The testing process will determine the fate of Kuhnemann's bowling action, and a successful outcome will be crucial for his continued participation in international cricket, as reported on cricinfo. The ICC's regulations and testing procedures will ensure a fair and thorough assessment, and Kuhnemann's future in the sport hangs in the balance.
Australian spinner Matthew Kuhnemann has been reported for a suspect bowling action after the second Test against Sri Lanka in Galle, casting a shadow over his international cricket career. Kuhnemann, who finished the series as the leading wicket-taker with 16 wickets, will undergo mandatory testing within three weeks to determine if his action is legal.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) allows 15 degrees of flex in a bowler's bowling arm, and Kuhnemann's action will be assessed at an ICC-accredited center, likely in Brisbane. Cricket Australia will support Kuhnemann through the process and liaise with the ICC and independent experts to ensure a fair and thorough assessment.
Kuhnemann has been playing professional cricket since 2017 and has shown promise with his left-arm spin, but this setback may potentially threaten his Test future. If he fails the assessment, he will be banned from bowling until remedial work is undertaken and corrections are approved. However, he will be allowed to continue playing domestic cricket while his action is assessed.
The cricket community will be watching closely as Kuhnemann navigates this challenging period, and Cricket Australia's support will be crucial in helping him overcome this hurdle. The outcome of the testing will have significant implications for Kuhnemann's career, and fans will be eagerly awaiting the results to see if he can continue to make a impact on the international stage.
