The news of Sunil Narine's action being reported came as a surprise to the Kolkata Knight Riders but the franchise is hopeful of coming to a resolution soon. In a statement, KKR said that the West Indian has played as many as 68 games since 2015, when he was last reported during the IPL season for a suspect action before being subsequently cleared completely by an ICC accredited facility. Furthermore, he was playing his 6th game this season, with no concerns expressed formally or informally by the match officials so far. The statement added that this entire situation of disallowing, then allowing and then disallowing someone was quite bizarre. For a player and the fans, it's like a ping pong back and forth.
