The 31-year-old made his 50-over debut in the game on Tuesday, taking 1-46 including the key wicket of Travis Head.

But in the match officials' report, concerns were raised about the legality of his bowling action, the International Cricket Council noted Thursday.

"The bowler will undergo an independent assessment of his bowling action at an ICC-accredited testing facility," the governing body said.

The news is another setback for the Proteas who are already without injured pace spearhead Kagiso Rabada.

The second game in the three-match series in on Friday in Mackay.
