The controversial incident between Australia all-rounder Marcus Stoinis and Pakistan speedster Mohammad Hasnain refuses to die down with Pakistan icon Shoaib Akhtar branding the Australian’s gesture as “shameful” on Tuesday.
Akhtar took to Twitter and mentioned, “Shameful gesture by @MStoinis regarding bowling action of @MHasnainPak during #TheHundred2022 . How dare you do such things?? Ofcourse @ICC stays quiet about them. No player should be allowed to do such things if someone’s been cleared already.”
Stoinis courted controversy on Sunday after he seemingly accused Hasnain of chucking through the Southern Brave’s seven-wicket loss to the Oval Invincibles within the ongoing ‘The Hundred.’

Stoinis, taking part in for the Southern Brave, was dismissed by Hasnain after edging into the palms of Will Jacks.

While making his technique to the pavilion, Stoinis was noticed seemingly imitating Hasnain’s motion to be a chucking one.
Earlier this yr, Hasnain was discovered responsible of getting an unlawful bowling motion and was suspended from bowling after he was reported by umpire Gerard Abood in a Big Bash League (BBL) match.
The Lahore University of Management Sciences confirmed that his motion breached the ICC’s 15-degree restrict for elbow extension after Hasnain underwent biomechanics assessments in January. The bowler has since been declared match to bowl once more after present process remedial work.
Hasnain has performed eight ODIs and 18 T20 Internationals after making his Pakistan debut in 2019.
