The West
Indies off-spinner, Sunil Narine, has withdrawn his name from the World
Cup squad because of his lack of confidence in his revised bowling action. The
West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) will soon announce the name of a player who is
going to replace him.
Sunil Narine was reported
for his suspect
bowling action during his side’s clash against the Dolphins at Hyderabad in September. After
this allegation, he went under intense remedial work on his bowling action and preliminary
tests showed him bowling legally.
According to a board
statement, he is not confident enough. He needs more time to be able to bowl confidently
for a sustained period in international cricket with his new action.
Narine’s remarkable figure
of 8-3-9-6 helped Trinidad and Tobago
win the West Indies regional one-day title on
Sunday. So, he could be a very vital inclusion in the squad. The decision to
withdraw his name from the squad has come as a blow to West
Indies .
