BASSETERRE, St. Kitts - WEST INDIES and Trinidad and Tobago mystery spinner Sunil Narine had his bowling action called during the Indian Premier League and placed on the Warning List.

According to a statement from the Indian Premier League, issued shortly after the game, the West Indian was called for an illegal bowling action.
 
“Sunil Narine, the Kolkata Knight Riders player, has been reported for bowling with a Suspected Illegal Bowling Action during his side’s Dream11 Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 match against Kings XI Punjab at Abu Dhabi.

Organisers said another report would result in Narine being suspended from bowling in the Dream11 IPL 2020 until cleared by the BCCI Suspect Bowling Action Committee.
