Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been barred from bowling in England due to concerns over his bowling action.  

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has suspended Shakib from bowling in its competitions after his action was reported during the ongoing County Championship. Shakib was representing Surrey in the tournament when his action came under scrutiny.  

As per ECB regulations, Shakib will not be allowed to bowl in any of their matches until his bowling action is cleared. He must undergo an independent assessment to determine the legality of his action before he can resume bowling.  

The suspension is a setback for Shakib, who has been a key player for Surrey, and adds to the challenges faced by the Bangladeshi cricketer in maintaining his pivotal role as an all-rounder.
