The International Cricket Council (ICC) has given West Indies opener and part-time off-spinner Kraigg Brathwaite the green light to continue bowling in international matches.

Brathwaite was reported for a suspect action after the first Test against England at Edgbaston last month.

He subsequently had his bowling action tested at Loughborough University, where it was found that all of his deliveries were within the 15-degree elbow extension limit.

In the 40 Tests he has played to date, the 24-year-old has taken 12 wickets at an average of 53.58.
