Quetta Gladiators spinner Usman Tariq was reported for a suspect bowling action during the PSL 9 clash between Quetta Gladiators and Karachi Kings on 6 March at the Pindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi.
.The match, officiated by on-field umpires Richard Illingworth and Asif Yaqoob, saw Tariq’s action being flagged. So far in PSL season nine, Tariq has managed to secure two wickets in three matches. It is worth noting that in the match where Tariq’s action was reported, Karachi came out victorious with a commanding seven-wicket win over Quetta at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
The Quetta Gladiators team management has re-quested the PCB to allow Usman to undergo the bowling action test which will take place at a PCB-approved facility in due course.—APP
