However, the Pakistan pacer has been reported for a suspect illegal bowling action in the tournament. Hasnain's action was reported by the umpires in an encounter between Sydney Thunder and Adelaide Strikers on January 2. The speedster had to be tested at the National Cricket Centre in Brisbane within 14 days before leaving the country. However, Queensland's border restrictions amidst rising Covid cases ruled out his travel to Brisbane, and the pacer had to depart for Pakistan early due to a recall
Hasnain will now undergo a biomechanical test in an ICC-accredited testing facility in Lahore. The reports will be sent to Cricket Australia for review and verification as the speedster was reported for illegal bowling action during the BBL fixture.
