SuperKings' Phangiso reported for 'chucking' in SA20

Joburg SuperKings left-arm spinner, Aaron Phangiso has been cited for an “illegal bowling action,” during Tuesday’s Betway SA20 clash against the Pretoria Capitals at the Wanderers.

Phangiso, 38, was reported for a “suspected illegal bowling action,” by the officials, which included the experienced umpiring duo Marais Erasmus and Shaun George. Phangiso played a starring role for the SuperKings, in a narrow six-run victory in that match, taking 4/31, the third best bowling figures in the tournament so far.

The tournament’s ‘Independent Bowling Action Panel,’ comprising match referee representative Gerrie Pienaar, former Proteas bowler Vernon Philander and Cricket SA’s current high performance manager, Vincent Barnes will adjudicate on the issue.
