Sunil Narine Needs to Appear for Another Bowling Action Test Before IPL 2015: Jagmohan Dalmiya

Kolkata Knight Riders' ace spinner Sunil Narine might have been cleared by the ICC but the West Indian will still have to appear for another test for his suspected illegal bowling action in Chennai, BCCI president Jagmohan Dalmiya said on Wednesday.

"I've spoken to them (KKR management), he has to appear for the test again. Be it once or twice," Dalmiya told reporters on the sidelines of Cricket Association of Bengal's felicitation programme of the 1989-90 Ranji Trophy winning squad that celebrated 25 years of the triumph on Wednesday.
