Bangladesh Cricket Board Counsel Mustafizur Rahman Khan said Taskin’s ban by the cricket regulating body was a miscarriage of justice.
In a Facebook post on Saturday evening, Khan explained that the International Cricket Council’s decision to ban the Bangladeshi fast bowler contradicted its own regulations.
The lawyer, who practices at Bangladesh Supreme Court, told the Dhaka Tribune on Saturday that the regulations provide for a player being banned if the stock delivery is found to be flawed.
In this case according to the independent assessment Taskin’s stock delivery was not adjudged to be illegal.
However, the young fast bowler, when asked to bowl bouncers, was assessed to have illegal action in three deliveries. Khan pointed out that Taskin was not really getting anything out of that. “Those three deliveries were also his slowest.”
