West Indies pair Marlon Samuels and Shane Shillingford have been reported to the International Cricket Council for suspected illegal bowling actions.
The off-spinners were reported after the second day of the second Test in Mumbai, which India won by an innings.
They can continue bowling but must undergo independent analysis within 21 days.

I don’t know about you all but I had it up to my neck with the ICC. We as West Indians should stand up for our players. Let us demonstrate in every city, town, village and hamlet. We are fed up and we are not going to take it anymore.
They are trying to keep us down any and which way they can.
West Indies team themselves started it long ago.
Because to them it was Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica and Trinidad & Tobago made up the West Indies, now is poor Shane they want to pay for the sins of their past.
God is a merciful God and he will see Shane through. Dominicans just stick together on this one. Let your voices be heard Loud and clear.
Regardless of all the so called development in India and those oversized ego of those Indian players. India has more slums than all of the poorest villages in the world put together.
Look no further than it’s capital..CALCUTTA.
Garbage, garbage, garbage and more garbage.
We maybe small islanders but we are clean people.
So tell the ICC and the Indian players with their accusation to stick it where the sun does’nt shine.
Just keep doing your best Shane and out everyone of them. throw down all their wicket. 9 wicket in two overs and two maiden, three hat tricks
well shane u have malya with those people u n samuel they c in they not c in malinga with his stone throwing becouse u from dominica
All those Off Spinners bowling the doosra or trying to bowl it ..it looks ugly and an illegal bowling action..i agree with the icc
That’s how the doosra is bowled. By throwing the ball.”So what is Shane is NOT doing doing that the other spinners are doing”?
here we go again,the islands are under attack,listen this people never want to see westindies rise again,this is why we have to stick together as a one caribbean people,and pull our recourses together and build a good solid team,no small or large island thing,here is the thing,while we not being baptized and honouring our vows to god,the devil is really working to distabilize mankind,and that is no joke,this man nah sleep,this man is like a roaring roaming lion,and that is a fact.
Young man don’t give up leave this in god’s hand he’ll help you fight the battle.
i want to see if the wicb will stand by its players……..sri lanka stood by malinga now his bowling action is deem orthordox
Well based on what I read on Saturday on another medium, the “DOOSRA” was mentioned. There is hardly any bowler who can bowl the doosra without his action coming into focus.
Shillingford used it against the Indians, to the demise of many of their batsmen.
SHANE IS A VERY GOOD BOWLER, AND WILL PAST THE TEST.
GO SHANE GO!!!!!!!!!!!
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!
West Indies no longer dominate world cricket, so places like India have a big say in world cricket, and often get things going their way.
PASS not PAST
Shane my Brother don’t worry God is on your side because you took five six wickets in an inning against a top batting order you become a subject again.Jealousy envious people I heard them commentators how comes no one scrutinize other players like top spinner Saeed Ajmal.
Wicked ! Wow !
We bondieu let my woman Tri-State Beauty come and see these Indians harrassing her Shane and they will see! Let me go and call her she haven’t seen this yet!
@ Admirer Hahahaha you are piece of work indeed.
I will change my number you’re too excited. But this is typical Indians for you at every turn. They hate loosing and always cry foul. Shane will be just fine, they better leave my brother from another mother alone. Bowl them out Shane! Bowl them out! sakway toneh man!
Nonsense,shane and marlon are outstanding bowlers !
Interesting that the most successful bowler and batsman (batting all-rounder) on tour have been called out.
While I always respect officials and all in authority even when you may not agree with the decision made, but in recent times the errors against West Indies are so glaring as to confound the mind.
It appears that the sentiment is “WHILE WEST INDIES IS DOWN KEEP THEM DOWN BECAUSE IF THEY RISE THEY’LL CRUSH US”
And West Indies is not helping its cause either by playing even worst than mediocre cricket. TO ME ONLY SHANE & CHANDERPAUL PLAYED CRICKET and SAMUELS & BRAVO TRIED TO PLAY. ONLY SHANE CAN FEEL SATISFIED FROM THIS TOUR.
Shane never let your spirit be crushed. Say nothing to the press or say nothing negative. just work on your bowling all the time. Improve all the time. Review your own videos. If there is the slightest merit in what they say, then correct it quickly.
And please work on your batting with Irving Shillingford!!
THE BEST REVENGE (in this case I prefer to say RESPONSE) IS MASSIVE SUCCESS.
God Bless you and more success ( 12 Tests 59 wickets !! WOW)
I commend you sir..This a great comment. Others should follow suit.
Thank You.
For the Dublanc masses hold dear to your son of the soil. He has made you and the whole island proud. So keep praying for him daily that he will get better at what he does. May he continue to shine.
Remember if God is for us who can be against.
ICC should be fair all off spinners bowling illegal not just shillingford and samuels i guess that’s a shot at west indies cricket
Why is it that when shahe shillingford does a good job in bowling they always think negative about his bpwling.that is so sad for these two guys especilly shane after such an effort.God bless you young man, do not give up…….
trust icc… lol just cause the young man had a 2 5 wicket halls the umpires got paid under the table to made such reports
What is “illegal bowling actions”? How can one bowl illegally?
Oh boy I was thinking the same thing! Only the ICC knows!
keep the black man down . smh
I guess the ICC just need to ban the doosra because I have not seen an off spinner that I can say is better than the other starting with Muri who was the first bowler I saw bowl the doosra up to Shane and yes, Aswin. All international teams have them and therefore it is unfair for just a few to get reported after take took lots of wickets.
Shane again
yh because is the carribean
Yes again!! Anytime west indies have a good bowler, same thing!!
Murali (the greatest chucker of all time) retired so they are now putting Shane under the microcrope.
It is almost impossible to bowl the doorsa without the bowler throwing the ball.
Hmmmmm. Mauri used to throw and nobody never called him for throwing. Now Shane is following Mauri and they want to attack Shane. What an unfair world
All the offspinners bowling a doosra are throwing it. Ajmal, Botha, Harbajhan, Narine and yes Shane.
hmm..he doing too well so of course they’ll find something wrong..jah..
