James Otieno Ngoche (born 29 January 1988) is a Kenyan cricketer. Known for his off-spin bowling. He is the brother of three other Kenyan international cricketers, Lameck Onyango, Shem Ngoche and Nehemiah Odhiambo.[1]
Ngoche was one of three brothers, others being Shem and Nehemiah, in the Kenyan squad for the World Cup held in Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka from 19 February to 2 April 2011.[1]
He was suspended from bowling in international cricket in 2015 after the ICC found his action to be illegal.[2]
In order to resume bowling, Ngoche was required to have his action cleared through an independent assessment at an ICC-accredited biomechanics laboratory. He underwent unofficial testing of his bowling action as part of his remedial work at the Pakistan Cricket Board's biomechanics centre at Lahore in August 2016.[3]
