The International Cricket Council said Wednesday that match officials cited concerns about the legality of the 24-year-old Al-Amin's bowling action and handed a report to Bangladesh team manager Habibul Bashar.
Al-Amin will now undergo tests on his bowling action over the next three weeks but he is allowed to continue bowling in international cricket until the results come back.
Al-Amin has picked up only three wickets in four Test matches since making his debut against New Zealand last year. (PCB not to Appeal Ajmal Suspension)
On Tuesday ICC suspended Pakistan off-spinner Saeed Ajmal after an analysis of his bowling action revealed all his deliveries exceeded the 15-degree level of tolerance.
