Marcus Stoinis survives formal sanctions for accusing Mohammad Hasnain of Chucking

Stoinis playing for Brave

Southern Brave all-rounder Marcus Stoinis accused Oval Invincibles' speedster Mohammad Hasnain of allegedly chucking while bowling during the innings after the latter dismissed him.

The incident is from the match between the Southern Brave and the Oval Invincible in which the former faced a seven-wicket defeat at The Oval in London on Sunday night.

Stoinis mimicked Hasnain's action

After getting dismissed, a frustrated Stoinis was walking back to the pavilion and while going back the Aussie cricketer did a disgraceful act as he imitated Hasnain’s action to be a chucking one. Post that incident, Stoinis received criticism from the cricketing corner after he seemingly accused the Pakistan seamer.

It has been understood that after the match, Stoinis spoke to the match referee Dean Cosker and it was decided that the hard-hitting batter will not be formally charged with a breach of the England and Wales Cricket Board's disciplinary code.

Stoinis survives formal sanctions

Hasnain was found guilty of having an illegal bowling action and was suspended by the ICC from bowling earlier this year. The 22-year-old was then reported by umpire Gerard Abood after bowling in a Big Bash League (BBL) match between Sydney Thunder and Adelaide Strikers on January 2.

Hasnain then underwent biomechanics tests in late January, with the findings from the Lahore University of Management Sciences confirming his action breached the ICC’s 15-degree limit for elbow extension. The right arm quick worked on his action and remodelled it after which his action was declared legal by the top authorities.
