"VAN" (Sports Desk - 12.01.2025) :: Maguire Reported For Suspect Bowling Action Ireland’s left-arm spinner Aimee Maguire has been reported with a suspect bowling action during the first ODI of their ICC Women’s Championship series against India played in Rajkot on Friday. The match officials’ report, which was handed over to the Ireland team management, cited concerns about the legality of the 18-year-old’s bowling action. Maguire’s bowling action will now be tested under the ICC process relating to suspected illegal bowling actions reported in Tests, ODIs and T20Is. She is permitted to continue bowling in international cricket until the results of the testing are known. While on the other end, The Event Technical Committee of the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup 2025 has approved Genevieve Morrissey as a replacement for Aimee Maguire in the Ireland squad. Maguire was reported for having a suspected illegal bowling action in a Senior Women's match against India in Rajkot on 10 Jan 2025. She must complete her assessment within 14 days (which is in the middle of the event) necessitating Ireland’s request for her replacement. The replacement of a player requires the approval of the Event Technical Committee before the replacement player can be officially added to the squad. The Event Technical committee of the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup 2025 consists of Snehal Pradhan, ICC Manager – Women’s Cricket, Gurjit Singh, ICC Manager – Event Operations, Dinesh Muthuraman, Malaysia Cricket Association – Tournament Director and Julia Price (Independent).
