This will be circulated to the player and the ICC panel of umpires and referees during this period the bowler is allowed to continue playing Stage Two if the player is reported again within 12 months of the first report the ICC, in consultation with the relevant Board, will appoint one of its own advisors to work directly with the player on his action. A further detailed assessment will then be submitted by the ICC advisor within three months. If a majority is passed to this effect the bowler will be banned from bowling in international cricket for 12 months from the date of the hearing. This is a sensitive area and we have put forward a system that offers help and assistance to bowlers suspected of having problems with their actions. Bowling advisors will consist of ex-international cricketers with coaching experience.
Groups are to include experts in all major styles of bowling.
