The International Cricket Council confirmed that match officials handed a report to the West Indies team management citing concerns over the legality of Narine's deliveries.

The bowler must now undergo tests within 14 days and if he is proven to be using an illegal bowling action he will be suspended from bowling in international cricket until he remodels his action and pass further tests.

He should still be able to bowl in the two upcoming Twenty20 internationals as he would still have time to undertake the tests after the matches have taken place.
