Brian Vitori, the Zimbabwe pacer, has been suspended from
bowling in international cricket for 12 months after an
independent assessment, the International Cricket Council
(ICC) announced on Monday (December 26).
Vitori was reported during the clash against Sri Lanka in
Bulawayo on November 27 and it was found that some of
Vitori's deliveries exceeded the 15-degree limit. He was also
suspended in January this year but worked on his action and
was allowed to bowl in June.
Vitori is free to appeal against the suspension but can
undergo a re-test of his action only on completion of the
suspended period.
"Vitori can appeal against any procedural aspect of an
independent assessment that has led to this automatic
suspension," the ICC said in a release. "However, only after
the expiry of this one-year period will he be entitled to
approach the ICC for a re-assessment of his bowling action."
Vitori has played four Tests, 20 One-Day Internationals and
11 Twenty20 Internationals so far picking up 45 wickets
across formats.

Well looking at the positives, it only equates to about a 2 game suspension in the Zimbabwean context.

We can't catch a break with our quality seamers. We lose Chatara to injury, Vitori to suspension, Jarvis to county cricket... :(

I can't see Vitori recovering from this, he seems fickle at the best of times and is always struggling with fitness or confidence so I just can't see him being able to overcome this .....

I'm surprised Streak played him. A guy of his experience would know his action was going to be questioned. There's a story right there.

Wasn't it Streak who stopped Querl from being selected due to his dodgy action ??

May be he thought he would be ok since he had been cleared ???

But the same Streak as head coach of the Tuskers did not shy away from playing Querl for two entire seasons so that they could win the Logan Cup. Even presuming he was working on his action to correct it, that does not justify his prolonged selection for the Tuskers given he knew that the action was dodgy.
