Cricket West Indies have suspended John Campbell from bowling for an indefinite period after he was adjudged to have an illegal action.

The 26-year-old was reported following the drawn match between Jamaican Scorpions and Trinidad and Tobago Red Force on January 9-12 during the first round of the West Indies Championship.

Campbell finished with match figures of 1-54 from 19 overs in Tarouba but his action is deemed to have exceeded the 15 degrees limit.

Scorpions teammate Pete Salmon has been hit with a similar reprimand after his action was pulled up during his first-class debut during the victory over Guyana Jaguars on February 6-9.

Salmon claimed 8-110 at Providence Stadium, which included a seven-wicket haul in the second innings as the visitors stormed to a seven-run success.

Both players are unable to bowl in domestic competitions until their actions are deemed to be legal again.

Their returns will have to be signed off either by a report from Loughborough University or after independent analysis from another accredited testing centre.

Campbell has played six Tests, six one-day internationals and two T20Is for the West Indies, while Salmon's senior career is only in its infancy.
