Hebou PNG Barramundis Bowler Suspended

by Dinnierose Raiko01025

The Hebou PNG Barramundis have had their fair share of bad news but the news of fast bowler, Nosiana Pokana, comes as blow just when they are in preparation for the World Cup Qualifying campaign in Zimbabwe.

ICC announced the suspension yesterday following an independent assessment that found bowling action of Pokana to be illegal during their ODI match against Hong Kong in Dubai on 8 December 2017.

Pokana is now suspended from bowling in international cricket and this decision is expected to be enforced by all cricket federations as well.

Though at the moment, Pokana still has the option of applying for re-assessment.

Dinnierose Raiko graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Arts (Journalism) from Divine Word University in March 2016. She joined EMTV Sports in April 2016 covering Sports news and contributes content to and at times Co-host EMTV’s premier sports talk show ,'Sports Scene'. Her previous experience extends to a year of general news reporting for NBC West New Britain, NBC Madang and stringing for PNGFM just before joining EMTV. Having done courts, business, health, Education rounds before, the prospect of doing Sports stories became a new challenge. One that Dinnierose wanted to test herself with. She is now an all-rounder sports reporter but takes a greater interest in Cricket. Dinnierose has since found her niche and hopes to produce her own Sports Show someday.
