Two more international spin bowlers have been banned as the ICC crackdown on illegal actions continues.
Zimbabwe off-spinner Prosper Utseya and Bangladesh's Sohag Gazi are the latest to be suspended after their actions were examined in Cardiff.
Both bowlers were reported in August and it was found all their deliveries breached the tolerance limit of 15 degrees for straightening of the elbow joint.
Gazi, who has played 10 tests and 20 one-day internationals, was reported after the second ODI against West Indies in St. George's in August, while Utseya, a veteran of 160 ODIs, was reported after the third ODI against South Africa in Bulawayo.
Off-spinners Sachithra Senanayake (Sri Lanka), Kane Williamson (New Zealand) and Saeed Ajmal (Pakistan) have all recently been banned from bowling until they can modify their actions.
And Gazi's team-mate Al-Amin Hossain was also reported last month and ordered to undergo biomechanical tests.
"Both players can apply for a re-assessment after modifying their bowling actions," the ICC said in a statement.
