Sri Lankan off-spinner Tharindu Kaushal has been reported with a suspected illegal bowling action after the conclusion of the third Test against India at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo.

The 22-year-old will be required to undergo a test on his action at an ICC-accredited facility within 14 days and, during this period, Kaushal is permitted to continue bowling in international cricket until the results of the testing are known.

Kaushal, who has played six Tests and one ODI international for Sri Lanka, claimed 13 wickets at an average of 38.15 in the just concluded three-match series against India.

India registered their first Test series win on Sri Lankan soil in 22 years after defeating the hosts by 117 runs on the fifth day of the decisive third and final match in Colombo.
