Concerns for Super Kings

Aaron Phangiso has been quite an inseparable part of the setup where he has taken 6 wickets in the 5 matches. The spinner has the knack of picking up wickets at crucial stages of the match and at the same time, the spinner bowls impeccable lines & lengths. Skipper Faf du Plessis would be hoping that the spinner isn’t banned for suspected bowling action. Super Kings are at the bottom of the table where they have won 2 matches out of 5.

Aaron Phangiso’s action has been reported earlier way back in 2016 during the One Day Cup while playing for Lions against Warriors. He later was cleared of the action after undergoing remedial work on his action.
