Ganguly however, was not pleased with the situation, claiming that there are other players in the IPL, who have worse actions than his teammate.

Mathews recently returned from injury, following a calf strain and has been given clear instructions by the national team’s medical staff that his career will remain on the line if he opts to bowl on a regular basis.
Despite such concerns, the player is adamant to continue bowling at least in the shorter versions, but de Mel was not impressed with the stance taken by the Lankan vice-captain.
