Australian Spinner Matthew Kuhnemann Cleared of Suspect Bowling Action
The ICC confirmed Kuhnemann's bowling action complies with regulations after testing, allowing him to continue his international career.
- Matthew Kuhnemann was reported for a suspect bowling action during the second Test against Sri Lanka earlier this month.
- An independent assessment at the National Cricket Centre in Brisbane found his elbow extension to be within the ICC's legal limit of 15 degrees.
- Kuhnemann played a key role in Australia's 2-0 series sweep in Sri Lanka, taking 16 wickets at an average of 17.18.
- This was the first time Kuhnemann's action had been questioned in over 100 professional matches since his debut in 2017.
- The clearance allows Kuhnemann to resume bowling in international cricket and prepare for upcoming matches following recovery from a thumb injury.
