Proteas Spinner Subrayen Flagged for Suspect Action, Maharaj Returns to ODI Bowling Summit

Following the first ODI between South Africa and Australia on August 19, 2025, in Cairns, concerns were raised about Prenelan Subrayen's bowling action, leading to an official report and a required assessment of its legality.
Subrayen's bowling action has faced scrutiny since 2012 when he was placed under rehabilitation due to illegal action found in independent tests.
After remedial work and several re-assessments, including a suspension in early 2016, Subrayen was cleared to bowl again by March 2016 at the CSA High Performance Centre.
In his ODI debut, Subrayen took 1 wicket for 46 runs in 10 overs, dismissing debutant Travis Head, while South Africa secured a 98-run victory over Australia.
Subrayen is required to complete an independent assessment at an ICC-accredited testing center within 14 days to evaluate whether his bowling action complies with rules, but he may continue playing until the assessment results are available.
