Spinners who had setbacks due to their illegal bowling action

#3 Pragyan Ojha

India v CA Chairman's XI - Day 1
Ojha was an integral part of Dhoni's Test side

The left-arm orthodox was a key player in the playing eleven under the captaincy of M.S. Dhoni, especially when India played a test match at home.

In just 24 Test matches that he played, he went on to get 113 wickets with seven five-wicket-hauls and a ten-wicket-haul.

At one stage he was the supreme left-arm spinner in the country. But later in his career he was banned from bowling by the BCCI due to his illegal bowling action and never played for India again.
