IPL: KKR express surprise over Sunil Narine warning

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday expressed surprise over off-spinner Sunil Narine being reported for suspect bowling action in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Narine was reported by the match officials during KKR’s match against Kings XI Punjab which they won by two runs at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium last Saturday.

“This came as a surprise to the franchise and Mr. Narine, considering he has played over 115 games in the IPL since 2012 and as many as 68 games since 2015, when he was last reported during the IPL season for a suspect action before being subsequently cleared completely by SRASSC, an ICC accredited facility,” the franchise said in a statement.

“Furthermore, he was playing his sixth game this season, with no concerns expressed formally or informally by the match officials so far,” the statement added.
