Was just watching back some replays from the Jamaica vs CCC match... Salmon pelting mangoes, why are they allowing him to bowl?

Cricket West Indies has suspended Jamiaca offspinners John Campbell (a part-time bowler who opened the batting for West Indies in all three formats last year) and Pete Salmon from bowling in domestic West Indies matches with immediate effect, for illegal bowling actions. CWI confirmed that opinion reports from independent assessors at Loughborough University found that the actions of the two bowlers exceeded the permissible limit of 15 degrees

poor Beaton, umpires only watching him

yes I noticed it in the first match, the CWI should penalize teams for selecting bowlers with illegal actions, that's the only way to clean up the game, the pelters are just keeping a legal player out of the team

The little I saw of him in the game vs Campuses seem s to me that he is on the illegal side, still.
Coaches and managers and those other officials including local umpires should be
working together to prevent guys reaching this level and being selected.
