Pakistan all rounder Mohammad Hafeez will appear for an official test on his bowling action today at the ICC-accredited testing centre in Chennai.

The off-spinner will be given a 12-month ban from bowling if his action is found illegal for the second time in the span of seven months.

Hafeez was reported on June 21 for a suspected illegal action after the first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle.

The former Pakistan captain was earlier reported after the first test against New Zealand in Abu Dhabi in November 2014 and was banned after his action was subsequently found to be illegal.

However, he was allowed to bowl with a reformed action in April.
