Tom Banton also raised concerns about Tariq's action during the ILT20 in December 2025.

Tariq was reported for a suspect action in PSL 2024 and again in April 2025, but was cleared after testing at the PCB biomechanics laboratory in May 2025.

Tariq's action has been previously reported for a suspect bowling action during the 2024 Pakistan Super League and again in the 2025 PSL.
