Overview
- David Warner repeatedly raised concerns with the umpire about Zaman Khan’s low, slingshot action and was heard saying it looked like “throwing.”
- Officials have not reported any testing or suspension for Zaman Khan at this stage.
- Zaman Khan, drafted by Brisbane Heat as Shaheen Shah Afridi’s injury replacement, conceded 32 runs in three overs in his first outing of the season.
- Brisbane Heat beat Sydney Thunder by seven wickets at the Gabba, with Usman Khawaja scoring 78 in the chase after Warner made 82 for the Thunder.
- The incident revived memories of Muhammad Hasnain’s previous BBL case that led to a suspension and action remodeling after a player complaint.
