ICC Clears South Africa’s Prenelan Subrayen to Bowl After Action Passes Independent Test

A Brisbane assessment found his elbow extension within the ICC’s 15-degree tolerance.

Overview

  • The ICC announced on September 7 that Prenelan Subrayen’s bowling action is legal following an independent review.
  • Biomechanical testing at the National Cricket Centre in Brisbane on August 26 measured elbow extension for all deliveries within the 15-degree limit.
  • Match officials had reported his action after his ODI debut against Australia in Cairns on August 20, where he took Travis Head’s wicket and returned 1/46 in 10 overs.
  • With the clearance, he remains free to bowl in international cricket, though he did not feature again in Australia and was not selected for the current England series.
  • Subrayen previously underwent remediation and suspensions between 2012 and 2016 before being cleared to bowl in March 2016.
