Watching The Hundred, Team Skips are making a decent fist of chasing a record 215 to beat the Brummies. Family favourite Finn Allen was on a charge but got out to Tariq. How on earth is his bowling action legal?

Just beyond them. Every time Tariq steps up to the crease and stops I think he's abandoned his delivery.

Yeah it shouldn’t be allowed. One thing I noticed in the IPL is that there are quite a few Malinga style slingers now which is bad enough but that stop before the delivery is very off putting. He also runs up outside the return crease then does a bit of a side step to get inside it at the last second. It’s just not cricket!
