Biography
Suspension
He was suspended from bowling in international cricket in 2015 after the ICC found his action to be illegal.{{cite web |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc-world-twenty20-qualifier-2015/content/story/898923.html |title=Ngoche suspended for illegal action |access-date=15 July 2015 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}
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.{{Cite web |title=Kenya's Ngoche undergoes test on bowling action in Lahore |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/kenya-s-james-ngoche-undergoes-test-on-bowling-action-in-lahore-1046841 |access-date=2023-12-07 |work=ESPNcricinfo |language=en}}
