Kolkata, April 6 (IANS) A day after being cleared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) of suspect bowling action, Kolkata Knight Rider's spin wizard Sunil Narine bowled for close to 40 minutes in the net session held at the Eden Gardens on Monday.
The West Indies spinner bowled with his usual run-up to the KKR batsman who found it quite difficult to pick him in the nets too.
All the members of the squad were present at the practice along with skipper and left-handed opener Gautam Gambhir who batted for 45 minutes, belting away a few from right-arm pacer Morne Morkel. The latter used his height to good effect digging in a few short ones every now and then.
Bowling coach Wasim Akram was in the thick of things giving a few tips to the youngsters and the bowlers at the net.
Akram then went on to inspect the Eden strip and was joined by South African great Jacques Kallis.
Gambhir too joined in the act and seemed satisfied with the wicket after spending a few minutes near it.
The Mumbai Indians practice session was, however, hampered by rain which made the team go indoors for their training.
