COLOMBO (Reuters) - Sri Lanka off-spinner Tharindu Kaushal has been reported for a suspect bowling action during the third test against India, the International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Wednesday.

The 22-year-old, with a distinctive high-knee run-up, has played six tests for Sri Lanka and has been earmarked as the island country's spin spearhead when Rangana Herath, 37, eventually retires.
